Removal Of Fairfax
County Seat To
Alexandria, 1852

The Gazette is indebted to Hon R.
Walton Moore for the following very
interesting account of the removal of
the Fairfax county seat to Alexandria
in 1852:
an the absence of anything in the
records of Fairfax County or the sub
iect, there has been for years a queS-
ton as to under what authority the
county seat of the county was removed
in 1852 from point near Vienna to
the town of Alexandria, which was
then a part of the county. In manu-
script history of the county left by
the late S. r. Donohoe. ESD, it is stat
ed that the removal was in accordance
with an order made by the Colonial
Governor Dinwiddie. The question
has been cleared up by Investigations
that Mr.. Fairfax Harrison recently
set on foot in England. What was
done, and why it was done, is shown
by the following extracts from the
Executive Journal Of the Virginia
Council in the Colonial Office in Lon
don:
1852, March %. A petition sub
SScrlbed by many of the principal in
habitantS of Fairfax County for re-
moving the court house and prison of
mat county to the town of AleXan-
uria' which they propose to build by
subscription, was this day read. Or
oered that the justices of the said
county De acquainted Herewith and
required to signify their objection
agaihSt such removal, if they have
any by the 25th of next month, on
which day the board vii resume the
consideration thereof.
1752' April p. Upon the petition
of many of the inhabitants of Fa;rfav
County for removing the court bonse
and prison of the said county by sinh
