thought II might be we'll to tell how
one high school building was secured
Tor rural section of Virginia. Tho
people OF Fairfield. Rockbridge county,
were sadly In need OF high school
\ building. For years those who we're able
had been sending their children away
from home for high school training, hut
4 q very muci, larger number had no high
school advantages at all. All the train
Ing to which they had access was given
by two faithful teachers In d miserable
little ,wo.room schoolhouse. Tho conf
4 nunity is rich, but only a few could be
Interested.
Finally, the district board and the dvl-
sion superintendent undertook n CAM
paign for a better house. This campaign
was wagctl systematically by personal.
interview and by correspondence, Until
conditions seemed to be about right.
( Then public meeting was called. The
speakers who addressed this injecting
demonstrated that II would DO cheaper
to build, equip and maintain good high
school in Fairfield than for the coin-
munity to send oven the small number
OF students It was sending away to other
schools.
AiIne meeting was Hel1 on NlHTCn OH.
The speeches were short and to tho point
The campaign had prepared tho people
for action. AS the meeting was about
TO close. superintendent Effinger an
nounced that the board would give two
dollars for every one the people would
give. Before the audience adjourned over
five hundred dollars had beer subscribed
and enough promised by men who were
detained at homo to bring the amount UP
to seven hundred dollars. Win ~hat the
ladies will add for an assembly hall, this
insures twenty-flve bnndred dollar
building.
A building committee was appointed:
the house will be ready for ,iso next ses-
sion. and they are now on the lookout
for good malo principal.
Tho results are attributed to-
First-The genuine interest OF the school
officials.
sccond-The intelligent. systematic cam
paign.
Third-There were no factions; they all

Coming over with tho Lees, Corbns
and other prominent families during the
early colonial period, was that OF .Turbcr-
vile. which became at once prominently
allied with them. both by family con-
nection as we'll by patriotic zenl through-i
out the colony.
Thelr English lineage we have not
been able to fully gather, but 1t Is pretty
from the same family as the distinguished
English poet, George Turberville, who
was born at Whitecfurch, Dorcetshirc.
about 1880, and was educated at Win
chester and New College, Oxford; after
le went MS secretary to Sill. Thomas Ran
dolpll, ambassador to Russia, OF which
country he wrote description. besides
editing hlnny songs, odes, etc. He died
In 1000. From the arms, az given, they
must have been very near the crown, as
tho lion ranpnnt. on shield erminie.
denote the highest rank, and the crest
OF n stone castle shows that they wcrc
in command Of the kings defenscs.
George Turberville Is considered by the
family as being the first einlgraht to
Virginia, and settled I'M King and Queen
county about 1850. Hei married Martha
Lee, daughter of Richard Lee. the emf
grant. After the DEATH OF Mr.. Ttrber-
yllo she married William Fltzhugh, Of
Maryland.
George and Martha Leo chad a son,
George, who married Martha Corbin,
daughter of the noted Garvin Corbin. OF,
Northumberlhhd county, Va. They hal
two SONS. Garvin Corbin Turbervillc and
Richard Lee Turbervile. Garvln Turber-
VILE married n Miss Danserllcld. daugh-
ter of Colonel Dahgerfleld. OF the Reyo-
luton. Thcy left an only daughter Maryyi
who married William r. raliaferro The
first George Turberville WAS captain
in the army, and his name Is signed to
the resolutions drawn up by Richard
Henry Lee against the stamp act. It Is
interesting to see 80 many names of thc
early settlers to this great document,
which first fired the hearts of the coli
inists to rebellion, whose descendants
re still with us. and maintaining tho
principles which were then so mastery
promulgated by that great statesman.
The second George Tnrberville was a
Scstryman In old .Cope Parish" Church
In 17si, and was an active supporter OF the
EcGurch for many years.
Another connection was made between
the families of Lee and Turbervllle. This
was George Turberville. grandson of first
George. who married Harriet Lee, eldest
daughter OF Richard Henry Lee. SHE
married second time. her last husband
being tho Rev. Mr.. Mofrit. BY this mar
rlage was George Lee Turberville. who
was educated in England. From him
are descended many OF The name who
are now scattered into nearly every
county in the State.
It Is desired that the family be brought
out more fully, among its many coll
lateral branches, and with this view cor
respondents are desired to s6nh In such
material as will complete the record to
the present generation.
