Early History of Staunton and Beverley Manor in Augusta County, Virginia

About this book

Early History of Staunton and Beverley Manor in Augusta County, Virginia by Edward Aull is a meticulously researched account of one of the most significant frontier regions in colonial America. Staunton and the surrounding Beverley Manor formed a key settlement zone in the Shenandoah Valley, where pioneers carved out new lives in the 18th century amid the challenges of wilderness, Native American relations, and the growing tensions of colonial expansion.

Aull traces the origins of the area from land grants and early surveys to the development of farms, churches, and civic institutions that anchored community life. He brings to light the contributions of the Scots-Irish and German immigrants who settled the region, emphasizing their resilience, cultural traditions, and role in shaping Virginia's western frontier. Alongside land records and genealogical information, the book paints a vivid picture of daily lifeโ€”family structures, religious practices, and the struggles of building stable communities on the edge of colonial America.

Beyond local interest, the study situates Staunton and Beverley Manor within the larger narrative of American history, showing how this frontier contributed to westward expansion, Revolutionary War service, and the eventual shaping of a distinctive Appalachian culture. Aull's careful documentation makes the book invaluable for historians, genealogists, and anyone interested in the roots of Virginia's settlement history.
