Her father, James L. (\"Dot\") Addington, owned a \"racket,\" or mercantile, store in town. Cynthia attended Virginia Intermont College in Bristol and graduated in 1918 with a teacher's degree in voice, harmony, and history of music. She married Roy Gilley Boatwright in 1919 and gave birth to their only child, a daughter, Ida Virginia Frances, in 1921. Her husband worked as a cashier at the First National Bank and then at Cynthia's father's store. From 1943 to 1965, he was the Coeburn Postmaster.","Soon after her marriage, Boatwright turned her energies toward volunteer work, a passion that proved consistent throughout her life. In the 1920s and 1930s, she was active in such local clubs and groups as the Methodist Missionary Club, the Woman's Society of Christian Service, and the Coeburn Women's Club. As chair of the Christian Social Relations Committee and Local Work, she taught Bible Class at the Colored Church every second Sunday. She was involved in the Children's Home Society and served on the executive committees of the Virginia Cancer Foundation and chapel fund of the Industrial Farm for Women. She served on the advisory council of the Virginia League for Planned Parenthood.","But Boatwright's activities were not just limited to club work. She was the first woman in Wise County to run for public office and served on the Coeburn Town Council from 1934 to 1938.","Beginning in the late 1930s, Boatwright became increasingly involved in the Virginia Federation of Women's Clubs (VFWC). She was President of her local district women's club from 1935 to 1938, and in 1938, she was elected Vice-President of the VFWC. The pinnacle of her VFWC career was as President in the war years of 1941 to 1944. She was the first southwest Virginia woman to be President of that organization. During her years as President, the VFWC turned its attention to the war effort, by donating ambulances to the Red Cross, encouraging women to volunteer for civil defense, conservation, and nursing services, and supporting the USO. Her theme was \"Let us rise up and build.\"","Other activities of the 1940s included being appointed in 1941 by Governor James H. Price to the State Defense Council and serving from 1944 to 1947 as chair of the General Federation of Women's Clubs Aviation Defense Board. Boatwright was president of the Coeburn Woman's Club from 1945 to 1946 and President of the Wise County Federation of Women's Clubs from 1944 to 1947.","Although she was born a Baptist, Boatwright became a Methodist after her marriage, and she actively applied her energies to the church all her life. She played the piano for Sunday church and funeral services throughout her lifetime. From 1947 to 1951, she served as President of the Big Stone Gap district of the Women's Society of Christian Service. In 1960, she headed a fund drive for additions to buildings at the district Methodist Camp.","When Virginia Polytechnic Institute merged with Radford College in 1944, the composition of the Board of Visitors changed from fifteen to sixteen members, with four of these to be women. Boatwright was appointed in December 1944 as one of these first four women on the VPI-Radford College Board of Visitors, where she served until 1953.","Boatwright worked strenuously for the Democratic Party in the late 1940s and 1950s. She was a member of the Democratic State Central Committee and chair of the Virginia Ninth District Democratic Party Women's Division, and delegate to the 1952 and 1956 National Democratic Conventions. From 1954 to 1958, she was the Virginia representative to the National Democratic Advisory Committee on Political Organization.","Other organizations in which Boatwright was involved include the Virginia Heart Fund, the Virginia Cancer Foundation, Breaks of the Cumberland Park, and the Eastern Wise Chapter of the American Red Cross.

","Series I: Correspondence contains business correspondence from portions of Donald S. Wallace's tenure with the Virginia Water Resources Division. Any enclosure are attached to the original correspondence. The 1943-1945 correspondence relates to trips and projects throughout Virginia. Much of it is copies of letters sent to individuals other than Wallace. Several of the letters were written by William M. McGill, the Assistant State Geologist during the period. Letters and memoranda from 1951-1952 are concerned with the creation of the Water Resources Committee and include drafts of committee documentation. The committee was disbanded, along with other state committees, due to lack of funding, in late 1952. Of particular interest is a thank you note to Wallace from Governor John S. Battle (October 15, 1952) in appreciation for his service with the committee. ","Series II: Photographs contains a collection of approximately 80 items. In most cases, the negative image is available as well. The photographs have been left in their original order and the negatives placed with the matching images. Most of the photographs are not identified. The collection of 3¼ x 4½ photographs have handwritten captions on the back, identifying the sites along the Roanoke River near Buggs Island. Other select images with captions include such sites as the Appomattox River, the Smith River near Philpott, Virginia, and the Shenandoah River. Based on the few dated images and dates in the collection, the photographs were most likely taken in the 1940s.","Series III: U.S. Geological Survey Reports contains a collection of published and unpublished reports relating to water in Virginia. Publications are arranged alphabetically by author, regardless of publication status. The unpublished reports are written on specific rivers or flood regions in the state. Topics of published reports include water resource investigations, flood reports, and streamflow analysis. While all the reports in this series were distributed by the U.S. Geological Survey, several were written in conjunction with Virginia agencies or local Department of the Interior employees. ","Series IV: Virginia State Agency Reports contains seven published reports, which are arranged alphabetically by author. Two are on specific regions (the James and York River Basins), and the remainder deal with aspects of water in Virginia (surface water and water and mineral resources). Most of the reports were created by the Virginia Department of Conservation and Economic Development, Division of Water Resources. ","Series V: Local Reports contains several consulting reports by independent engineers or engineering groups, which are arranged  alphabetically by author. Areas covered include Augusta, Bath, Chesterfield, and Fairfax counties, and the city of Alexandria. This series also contains a collection of reports entitled, \"Results of spring trip, August 1962.\" Each report consists of several pages of spring locations and related data. The following Virginia counties have reports: Alleghany, Augusta, Bath, Botetourt, Craig, Frederick, Highland, Page, Rockbridge, Rockingham, and Shenandoah.","Publications are listed by alphabetically by author, regardless of publication status.","Publications are listed by alphabetically by author.","Reports are listed by alphabetically by author.","Little biographical information is available on Donald S. Wallace. He worked as an engineer for the U.S. Geological Survey Water Resources Division until at least 1952, including several months on the Water Resources Committee and a related subcommittee. Wallace served as Commissioner of the Water Resources Division during his tenure, as well.","In 1926, the  Virginia Division of Water Resources and Power  was established. The name changed to the  Virginia Division of Water Resources  in 1943. Eventually, the division came under the control of the  Virginia Department of Conservation and Economic Development  until it ceased to exist as a single agency. Much of the same work is now under the jurisdiction of the  Virginia Department of Conservation and Recreation  and the  Virginia Department of Environmental Quality  (established in 1993). Additional materials in the collection relate to the  Virginia State Water Control Board , initially established in 1946 and now a part of the  Virginia Department of Conservation and Recreation .","The guide to the Donald S.

Benefiting from the popular belief in the restorative powers of mineral waters, the Montgomery White catered to a new leisure class seeking healthy and entertaining distractions. In doing so, the resort joined such other nearby establishments as the Greenbrier White, Old Sweet, and Yellow Sulphur springs. The Montgomery White, encompassing several acres of land, boasted a three-story hotel with more than 200 rooms and more than 30 cottages on the grounds.","During the American Civil War, in 1862, the resort was designated a Confederate general hospital, charged with caring for sick and wounded soldiers. By the end of the summer, the hospital was at capacity, with more than 400 patients. While there is no complete list of those who died in the hospital, the nearby cemetery is said to hold 265 graves.","Following the war and much renovation, the Montgomery White again opened to the public and became a popular summertime destination. In 1872, the resort hosted the first board meeting of the Virginia Agricultural and Mechanical College, and in 1874, Jefferson Davis visited for the Southern Historical Society's organizational meeting.","By 1886, George W. Fagg \u0026 Company operated the resort, which continued to be a successful enterprise for some years. By the 1890s, however, the Montgomery White and other such resorts were slowly declining in popularity. The economic panic of 1893, together with undocumented instances of fire and flood, may have accelerated the resort's downfall. The Montgomery White property was sold by auction and the remaining structures dismantled in 1904.","Source: Bodell, Dorothy.
