Down the Road: a history of Damascus, Va. in pictures

Damascus, Virginia history

When she died in 2008, Mrs. Hall’s children, Jack Hall, Eleanor Hutton and Marilou Preston, donated her papers and other effects to the library to be used as an archive for those interested in her life and the life of the community she loved and served for almost 100 years. The online archive features images and some documents. Its narrative structure is based on the text of Mrs. Hall’s History of Damascus, 1793-1950. Additional images and text have been selectively incorporated and credited when applicable. Washington County Public library holds the rights to the online version and administers the physical collection on behalf of the descendants of Louise Fortune Hall.
