-
Description
-
In 1870, the Richmond Dispatch published a list of county superintendents of schools appointed by the Board of Education of Virginia. The individuals named included prominent figures such as Wm. Wolfe for Buchanan and Wise counties, Colonel J. Lucius Davis for Buckingham County, and Dr. J. N. Powell for Henrico County. The appointment of John W. Wildman as superintendent for Loudoun County is particularly notable, as he was selected by Richmond. These appointments reflect the efforts of the Board of Education to establish a strong system of education throughout Virginia following the Reconstruction period. The list provides valuable insight into the individuals entrusted with shaping the educational experience of students in various counties across the state at that time.
