Title A name given to the resource Bachelor Girls Club Subject The topic of the resource New Market (Va) Description An account of the resource This photograph shows the members of New Market’s “Bachelor Girls Club.” It was most likely taken sometime between 1870 and 1890. Almost nothing is known about this organization. After the Civil War the male population in the South had been decimated. Many women never married so the culture had to shift to accommodate a large body of unwed females. Organizations like this were prevalent and provided women who could not find husbands with social outlets. Some sources indicate this photograph shows the girls before a Halloween party. Hosting events such as that would have certainly been in line with the group’s mission. What we do know is these costumes were most likely recycled from KKK outfits. While it is almost impossible to prove this fact, the similarities are striking and most researchers tend to back this conclusion based on what evidence exists. The Klan was certainly active in the county during this period. A major KKK parade, which had hundreds of participants, occurred in New Market in 1870. Local politicians and community leaders either directly supported the organization, or at least backed its ideals. Since the organization promoted “proper” behavior for women a connection with the Bachelor Girls Group is certainly feasible. Though no official Klan records show a local group existed, newspaper accounts show the Klan’s local activities would continue through the 19th and first half of the 20th century. During the 1920s and 1930s regular regional KKK meetings were held at Shenandoah Caverns. Thousand of Klansmen attended with support from local businessmen and KKK members, to promote their views. As late as the 1960s crosses were still being burned in the area as part of their rituals. Today public support in Shenandoah County is decidedly against the Klu Klux Klan or any organization that promotes similar beliefs. However, these groups do make their voices heard on occasion and remind us that they continue to exist in our society.

Title A name given to the resource President McKinley in Woodstock Subject The topic of the resource McKinley, William Woodstock (Va) Description An account of the resource On May 20th, 1899 William McKinley, President of the United States, travelled through Shenandoah County aboard a special B&O Railroad Coach. The President was returning to Washington DC after spending time vacationing in Hot Springs Virginia. During his trip the President stopped at several local towns. Newspaper reports indicate he stopped in Timberville, Mt. Jackson, and Woodstock. These accounts fail to mention any visits to other locations. His time in the county included two notable moments. In Mt. Jackson a “cake walk” was underway and delegations from all the towns were present for entertainment and festivities. The prominent performer at the event was R.J. Walker who dressed in dark face, impersonated the “negro character,” and played “their music” for the crowd. When the President arrived he was presented with the largest cake from the walk. The Shenandoah Valley newspaper concluded its coverage by reprinting a telegram thanking the town for the cake to dispel the rumor that the President had feared the cake was poisoned and had thrown it out near Hawkinstown. In Woodstock a large crowd and dignitaries greeted him at the depot. J.H. Williams, a prominent regional politician, greeted him and called Woodstock a “provincial town” which was dedicated to the principals of it Muhlenberg and its forefathers, even though they did not always support the President’s political views. President McKinley responded “I am aware of it-and am glad to meet you.” Williams also referred to McKinley’s Civil War service in the Valley and told the President “When you were here before, I...shot at you.” Today, many local residents would never imagine that the President of the United States would stop in Shenandoah County, visits with residents, or eat a cake from Mt. Jackson. If he was here, what would you tell him?

Title A name given to the resource USA Service Roll Subject The topic of the resource World War (1939-1945) Description An account of the resource Between 1941 and 1945 over 12 million American men and women would serve in the county’s Armed Forces during the Second World War. Among them were several hundred from Shenandoah County. The parents, siblings, friends, and sweethearts who stayed hungered for news from these individuals who were deployed around the country and overseas. To do so they wrote letters, thousands of which were sent and delivered every day. Service rolls like this helped residents know where locals were at so they could send letters and keep track of their service. When this roll was produced, or where it was kept, is unknown. Most likely it came from the Edinburg area since most of the names listed on it were Edinburg residents. These individuals were in the coastal artillery, the US Navy, the infantry, and the air corps. One was even a WASP which were female pilots trained to ferry air craft for the US Army. They were deployed at several places around the country.

Title A name given to the resource Letter from Gus to Mollie Foltz Subject The topic of the resource Foltz Family Forestville (Va) Bottineau (ND) Christmas Description An account of the resource This letter to Mary (Mollie) Foltz of Forestville VA was written on December 13, 1904 by “Gus,” a man who we know very little about. Records indicate that some of Mary’s family, including the Charlie Foltz mentioned in the letter, had moved to North Dakota during the beginning of the 20th century for new jobs and cheap land. It appears that Gus was among them. It was most likely mailed from the Bottineau ND post office. In his letter, the author mentions his community’s Christmas celebration. This included entertainment, most likely a children’s play/musical, and the Ladies Aid bazaar and supper. The proceeds of the latter, and the funds they raised by selling a piano and Minneapolis Journal subscriptions would go to buy a pipe organ, something an emerging community in the northern plains would have been extremely proud of. Gus also references holiday events in Forestville that Mollie would have been involved in. Apparently she helped organize the collection of evergreens to decorate her church (St. Mark’s Lutheran Church) and community, and the children’s Christmas program. The similarities between the two communities’ events are striking and highlight the connection between the two areas launched by Shenandoah County residents who moved west. Unfortunately not all of Gus’ letter was joyful news. He also reports on the amount of “sickness” in his area. Apparently an epidemic of an unknown disease had struck the community and had infected him, though he was recovering. Illnesses like these were common in both North Dakota and Shenandoah County before the emergence of many modern health practices. They occurred on almost a regular basis, claimed lives and terrified residents until they passed.

Title A name given to the resource Solomons Lutheran Church Christmas Card Subject The topic of the resource Solomons Lutheran Church (New Market Va) Description An account of the resource In 1793 Henrich and Dorthea Rausch offered to provide land an almost no cost for members of the Forestville community to construct a church on. The community accepted the offer because the area’s growing population, which had originally travelled long distances to either Old Pine Church or Raders Church, needed a closer site for worship. Thus began Solomons Church. Originally both Lutheran and Reformed Congregations met in the original church building which was completed in 1795. In 1851 these two groups decided to construct their own churches, In 1876 the current Solomons Lutheran Church was built immediately adjacent to the original church building which was sold and later demolished. In 1915 the church’s Sunday School classes distributed this Christmas card. Most likely it was sent to members of the congregation. It lists the class rolls and teachers, whose last names are still prominent in the area. On the front of the card is a photograph of the church building complete with separate entrances for men and women. The photograph also highlights just how rural of a congregation Solomons was and remains. However, the number of names listed, the design of the card, and the church itself indicates the congregation at the time was large and devoted. Today, a declining local population means the church, and many like it in areas of the county, are dealing with declining membership and the funds needed to operate.

Title A name given to the resource New Year Card Subject The topic of the resource Lichliter, Zelda Description An account of the resource On December 28th, 1926 Miss Zelda Lichliter of Strasburg Virginia received this New Year’s card from Seona of Richmond Virginia. New Year cards were initially developed in the 19th century as secular versions of Christmas cards. Their use soon spread as communities around the world began using mass produced cards to celebrate almost every holiday, special occasion, and social visit. When Zelda received this card, printed materials were still popular forms of communication. However, their role would become more limited as phone service, and now internet connectivity spread throughout the country. While New Year, and other holiday cards are still sold, their popularity has waned. Who Seona was is unknown. However, we do know who Zelda Lichliter was. She was born in 1905 in Strasburg. Her father, William F. Lichliter worked for the B&O railroad and her mother Elizabeth Williams Lichliter was a homemaker. Both they, Zelda, her brother Frank, and sister Pauline were active members of the local Presbyterian Church. Zelda worked in numerous different places throughout her life but returned to the family home on Washington Street where she died in 1990. Her papers, and many of those of her family, are preserved in Shenandoah County Library’s Truban Archives.
