On October 12, 1758, a newly appointed lieutenant governor of Virginia approved a set of bills passed by the colonys legislature, and the town of Stephens City, originally named Stephensburgh, was born. As the town grew over the next century and a half, its inhabitants participated in events of national significance, including the French and Indian War, the American Revolution, and the Civil War, when the town was almost burned by Union forces. Throughout its history, the town has had a reputation for labor, industry, thrift, and the overland travel and vehicle traffic associated with the modern U.S. Route 11 corridor. Where 150 years ago the town was famous for producing high-quality freight wagons, it is today a growing suburban community with residents who commute to work in the surrounding region.

To Save Her Dream

A Mission of Duty, Friendship, and Justice

By: Byron Carlyle Hall

Elizabeth C. "Nancy" Smith was a kind and generous woman who loved animals and who desired to protect the environment. She was a visionary who saw the need for preserving open space and rural values in an urbanizing society. She was a courageous defender of property rights who tried to protect her neighbors from injustice and to seek justice for property owners harmed in the development of Columbia, Maryland. For more than 30 years, she fought for her dream of preserving her farm. Arrayed against her were developers and state and county government officials. On Friday night, February 14, 1997, Nancy Smith finished reviewing documents that would preserve her farm for posterity, found them to be satisfactory and stated that she would sign them on Monday. On Saturday she suffered a fatal stroke, leaving the protective documents unsigned. Byron C. Hall, Jr., her friend for nearly 30 years whom she had designated as a trustee, took up her fight to preserve the farm. His mission of more than seven years: To save her dream.

At Grandma's House

The World War II Homefront in Havana, Illinois

By: H. Byron Earhart

Illinois State Historical Society Certificate of Excellence Winner, 2021 When H. Byron Earhart’s father enlisted in the U.S. Navy in 1942, young Byron and his family moved into his grandparents' old-fashioned home with a coal-fired range and potbelly stove, and his mother took charge of the family business, a frozen food locker. Grandma was the undisputed head of the family. While his father served on the battleship USS Missouri, his grandparents and mother held the family and the business together. At Grandma’s House is a tribute to everyday Americans who provided the social glue for a country at war as they balanced fear and anxiety for loved ones with the challenges and pleasures of daily life. The experiences of the Earhart family and this Midwestern community, supplemented by contemporary documents, family photos, and professional illustrations, recount with vivid local color the drama that played out on the national and international stage.
