Flower De Hundred The Story Of A Virginia Plantation By Mrs Burton Harrison PDF Download

Excerpt from Flower De Hundred: The Story of a Virginia Plantation Originally a separate district or Hundred, the place retained the name bestowed on it in early colonial days, which has been successively written Flower dieu, Fleur de, and Flower de Hundred. The Throckmortons, who have been in every generation conservative folk, tenacious of keeping things as their fathers left them, and disinclined to idle changes, would as soon think of selling the silver chalice pre sented by Queen Anne to their parish church, as of attempting to improve on the quaint name of their ancient home.
