The family initially lived in Washington County, but some years after becoming general manager of the Douglas Land Company, Hurt moved with his family to Marion (Smyth County), where he maintained an active interest in local affairs. ","Many of Hurt's activities centered on his role as manager of the Douglas Land Company and in developing the company's holdings. He supervised the planting and operation of a commercial apple orchard, undertook game and fish conservation measures and built roads. Hurt was also involved in other business enterprises, many of which were probably connected--either directly or indirectly--with the Douglas Land Company. He served on the board of directors of the National Bank of Chilhowie and the Colonial Manufacturing Company; was vice-president of the Damascus Telephone Association and the Elk Garden Company and was president of the Smyth County Fair.

Timber from other tracts of land was sold to lumber companies. W. L. Umbarger succeeded Hurt as manager upon the latter's death; Umbarger was later succeeded by H. P. Gills.

The family initially lived in Washington County, but some years after becoming general manager of the Douglas Land Company, Hurt moved with his family to Marion (Smyth County), where he maintained an active interest in local affairs. ","Many of Hurt's activities centered on his role as manager of the Douglas Land Company and in developing the company's holdings. He supervised the planting and operation of a commercial apple orchard, undertook game and fish conservation measures and built roads. Hurt was also involved in other business enterprises, many of which were probably connected--either directly or indirectly--with the Douglas Land Company. He served on the board of directors of the National Bank of Chilhowie and the Colonial Manufacturing Company; was vice-president of the Damascus Telephone Association and the Elk Garden Company and was president of the Smyth County Fair.

Rupp (1834-1908) was a German-born frescoer, plain and ornamental painter, and paperhanger from New Market, Virginia. While a youth in Germany, Rupp attended design school. He immigrated from Heilbronn, Germany and arrived in New York on July 17, 1854. Rupp resided in Luray for approximately one year and moved to New Market permanently in July 1855. He married Mary Catherine Spitzer (1837-1900) in 1862. Her father, Charles Spitzer, was a New Market gunsmith. In 1866, Rupp purchased what is now known as the Spitzer-Rupp House (located at 9295 Congress Street, New Market) from members of the Spitzer family. William and Mary Rupp had three sons, Charles E. (1863-1930), William \"Willie\" H. (1866-1925), and Joseph H. (1869-1923), all of whom are documented in the collection. While William F. Rupp worked primarily in the Shenandoah Valley, documentary evidence confirms that he also frescoed and painted in North Carolina and Pennsylvania. His fresco painting included churches, public buildings, and private residences, some of which are still extant.","Many members of the immediate and extended Rupp family are buried in New Market's St. Matthew's Cemetery.","Researchers should reference the \"Rupp family obituaries\" file for additional and more complete biographical information.","The materials descended through the Fritz and Loretta Orebaugh family of New Market, Virginia. Fritz's mother, Mary Rupp Orebaugh, was the granddaughter of William F. Rupp.","Papers were removed from non-archival document sleeves. Several leather document cases were discarded due to lack of research value and overall condition.","Charles E. Rupp. Papers, 1869-1942. Accession 36719, Personal papers collection, The Library of Virginia, Richmond, Virginia.","The collection documents the Rupp family of New Market, Virginia and includes correspondence, photographs, financial documents, account books, legal documents, and pencil drawings.","Most notably, the collection documents the work of William F. Rupp, a German-born frescoer, plain and ornamental painter, and paperhanger from New Market, Virginia. Rupp's account books list the name and place of buildings he painted, frescoed, and wallpapered including frescoing Rader's Lutheran Church in Timberville and the Shenandoah County Courthouse courtroom in Woodstock. Bound accounts also document his work painting signs and gilding. One book is devoted to Rupp's sketches, including a birds-eye view of Luray, Virginia, but his pencil drawings are also scattered throughout the bound account books.","The collection also comprises photographs, financial documents, tax receipts, correspondence, and photographs related to William Rupp's immediate family including his wife Mary; sons Charles E., William \"Willie\" H., and Joseph H. Rupp, wife Rose, and their daughter Mary E., as well as others.","Series 1: Personal Papers, 1831-1940, includes correspondence, financial and legal documents, account books, and pencil drawings and sketches. The materials primarily document William F. Rupp and his immediate family. Documents also relate to the Spitzer family.","Of note are the materials documenting William F. Rupp's profession as a fresco painter and paperhanger. These materials include business letterhead, account books, sketches, his apprentice certificate, and invoices and financial records. Rupp's sketchbook includes a bird's-eye view of Luray, Virginia that is featured in the Shenandoah Valley Folklore Society's publication  Folk and Decorative Art of the Shenandoah Valley , pg. 16, fig. 220. Rupp's account book dated 1867-1930 records the work he did for private individuals as well as work in public buildings. These include Rader's Lutheran Church in Timberville, the Shenandoah County Court House court room, the Methodist Church in Edinburg, the United Brethren Church in Hawkinstown, the New Market Bank of Virginia, and many others. An 1856 document outlines Rupp's plan for providing drawing lessons to the pupils at the New Market Female Seminary and associated charges.","Additional William F. Rupp materials include his 1858 citizenship certificate, two 1866 deeds documenting the purchase of his New Market house (now known as the Spitzer-Rupp House) from the Spitzer family, and his July 1865 oath of allegiance to the United States. Correspondence from R.C. Rupp, William's brother in New York, is written in German.","In addition to bound accounts, the financial documents primarily comprise annual tax receipts.","Charles E. Rupp's diary documents a trip from New Market to the Pacific coast and back with his three companions.","Includes bird's-eye view of Luray, Virginia, other scenes, people, and many fresco designs. The sketch of Luray is featured in the Shenandoah Valley Folklore Society's  Folk and Decorative Art of the Shenandoah Valley , pg. 16, fig. 220.","Series 2: Photographs, 1840-1973, comprises photographs, cabinet cards, and a framed daguerreotype and ambrotype of the immediate William F. Rupp family. The photographs are largely identified with a subset of unidentified photographs grouped together. Images of Joseph H. and Rose Neff Rupp comprise the bulk of the photographs with several images featuring people posing with an obelisk-style Confederate memorial.

In 1866, Rupp purchased what is now known as the Spitzer-Rupp House (located at 9295 Congress Street, New Market) from members of the Spitzer family. William and Mary Rupp had three sons, Charles E. (1863-1930), William \"Willie\" H. (1866-1925), and Joseph H. (1869-1923), all of whom are documented in the collection. While William F. Rupp worked primarily in the Shenandoah Valley, documentary evidence confirms that he also frescoed and painted in North Carolina and Pennsylvania. His fresco painting included churches, public buildings, and private residences, some of which are still extant.","Many members of the immediate and extended Rupp family are buried in New Market's St. Matthew's Cemetery.","Researchers should reference the \"Rupp family obituaries\" file for additional and more complete biographical information."],"custodhist_html_tesm":["\u003cp\u003eThe materials descended through the Fritz and Loretta Orebaugh family of New Market, Virginia.

He\n         spent his later formative years (1883-1889) as a student in\n         Munich, Germany attending the \n          Hochschule der Musik and the Royal\n         Academy from which he graduated with unprecedented honors\n         after studying under such notables in music theory and\n         composition as Joseph Rheinberger and Ludwig Thuille. Upon\n         returning to Illinois, Fickénscher taught piano\n         privately to students and gave formal concert performances\n         around the Chicago area. His reputation as an accomplished\n         pianist and accompanist led to his participation in concert\n         tours throughout the United States and Mexico with many of the\n         distinguished singers of the day such as the great Wagnerian\n         tenor, Anton Shott; Nikita, soprano of the Russian opera;\n         Materna; David Bispham and Madame Shumann-Heink. These tours\n         enhanced his reputation and allowed his piano mastery and\n         musical artistry wide recognition.","In 1896, Fickénscher settled in San Francisco\n         where he taught and coached young singers and studied the\n         potentialities of the human voice. He also began to immerse\n         himself in the composition of original music, being\n         particularly drawn by the influence of the English poets of\n         the Renaissance, Dante Rossetti and William Morris. In 1901,\n         he married \n          Edith Cruzan , an opera and concert singer\n         whose theatrical and musical talents matched his own as they\n         became an acclaimed recital team throughout the west coast.\n         While living in San Francisco, the Fickénschers\n         experienced the great earthquake of 1906. In the fire that\n         devastated the city, they lost their home and many of their\n         possessions including papers, press clippings, memorabilia and\n         compositional manuscripts relating to their concert activities\n         and Fickénscher's early music works.","In 1911, Fickénscher returned to Germany with\n         his wife and young daughter, \n          Arditha . He\n         established a studio in Berlin providing vocal instruction to\n         students and undertook a series of joint recitals with his\n         wife that introduced them to admiring European audiences. In\n         that period, his choral-orchestral poem, \n          The Chamber Blue and the orchestral-choral symphonic poem, \n          Aucassin and Nicolete were performed to positive reviews in concert\n         presentations. Fickénscher also continued to pursue\n         his idea of perfecting a keyboard for pure intonation and was\n         granted a patent for its design in Germany in 1912.","At the outbreak of World War I, the Fickénschers\n         returned to California. They opened a studio in both Oakland\n         and in San Francisco to instruct and train singers, resumed\n         their joint recital programs and lectures and soon became a\n         couple in great demand in the music circles in the area and\n         beyond. That demand induced them in 1917 to move to New York\n         City, to again teach students and to present themselves in\n         recital and concert programs to metropolitan music lovers.","A major change in Fickénscher's career style\n         took place three years later. In 1920 he accepted an\n         invitation from Edwin A. Alderman, then president of the \n          University of Virginia in Charlottesville,\n         to serve as head of the newly established music department.\n         Over the next 14 years he devoted himself in quiet dignity,\n         but tireless energy to the challenge of organizing, developing\n         and directing the administration of the department. He taught\n         students; gave leadership to the \n          University Glee Club and presented major\n         concerts in Washington, Baltimore, New Orleans, Richmond and\n         numerous other cities and towns throughout Virginia. He\n         established the \n          Albemarle Choral Club ; conducted the\n         University of Virginia and the \n          Norfolk Symphony orchestras; participated\n         in ensemble recitals, every 2 weeks over a period of 11 years\n         and, in 1938, conducted a fully staged mimo-drama of his work,\n          The Chamber Blue at the University. He performed organ recitals in the\n         University's McIntire Amphitheater; provided piano\n         accompaniment to students in vocal programs and instituted the\n          McIntire Concerts program which featured\n         such renowned artists as, Barrère, Alda, Novaes,\n         Homer, Casals, Ponselle, Martinelli and Zimbalist. With all\n         this, he still found time to arrange the settings of numerous\n         college football songs; to serve as the regular organist at \n          Christ Episcopal Church in Charlottesville\n         and to continue work on his music compositions and on the\n         development and construction of the \"Polytone,\" his idea of a\n         workable intonation keyboard which he designed to subdivide\n         the octave into 60 tones.","In 1941, Fickénscher retired from the University\n         of Virginia and returned to Fairfax in Marin County in\n         California. There he worked to complete his major unfinished\n         orchestral-choral symphonic poem, \n          The Land East of the Sun and to publish an article on the Polytone which he\n         had patented in February 1941. The article, \"The Polytone and\n         the Potentialities of a Purer Intonation,\" appeared in \n          The Music Quarterly (July, 1941). In May, 1946, he participated in\n         concert at Florida State Teacher's College, conducting \n          The Chamber Blue with the Australian-American composer, Percy Grainger\n         at the piano and, as pianist, joining a string quartet to play\n         the \n          Piano Quintet .","In 1947, the Fickénschers relocated to the city\n         of San Francisco to spend their remaining years near their\n         daughter. Edith Fickénscher died on January 9, 1950\n         and Arthur Fickénscher on April, 15, 1954. Some\n         years later, in 1983, their ashes were spread over the grounds\n         of the University of Virginia cemetery near the grave of their\n         close friends, James Southall Wilson and his wife Julia by two\n         devoted former students and lifelong friends and associates,\n         Robert Septimus Pace, Jr. and William W. Jones.","As a composer, Arthur Fickénscher was influenced\n         by Bach, Wagner and César Franck. His work\n         reflected contemporary trends and was cast in a \"sensuous\n         mysticism\" that intrigued many of his musical colleagues,\n         particularly Percy Grainger (1882-1961) who considered\n         Fickénscher to be one of the few musical geniuses\n         of the 20th century.","Funded in part by a grant from the National Endowment\n            for the Humanities","The Papers of Arthur Fickénscher contain ca.\n         2,000 items (11 shelf feet) that span the years 1895-1995. The\n         largest portion of the papers, consists of originals and\n         copies of virtually all of the music that\n         Fickénscher produced. The remaining portion\n         contains correspondence and other papers of a professional and\n         personal nature. The collection has been divided into three\n         major groups:","Group I, (Correspondence), contains letters sent to\n         Fickénscher and drafts and second copies of letters\n         that he prepared. The correspondence is subdivided into three\n         categories: (1) General, (2) Named and (3) Polytone Related.\n         These are listed by date or by correspondent name to highlight\n         special interest or subject matter.","Group II, (Professional and Personal), contains items\n         relating to Fickénscher's music and academic career\n         activities. These include published articles; biographical\n         background about his life and work; catalogue descriptions of\n         his music; memorabilia in the form of concert and recital\n         programs; reviews and newspaper clippings; a compilation of\n         notes, drawings and music relating to the evolution and\n         development of the \"Polytone;\" and an assortment of other\n         miscellaneous items consisting of financial and contract\n         records of the \n          University of Virginia's McIntire\n         Concerts (1919-1939); photographs of family and\n         friends; instructor notes for voice lessons; some brochures\n         about musical instruments; name and address notebooks and\n         family birth, marriage and burial documents.","Group III, (Compositions), contains original manuscripts,\n         master sheets for duplication and print copies of musical\n         scores. These items have been consolidated into oversized\n         folders for ease of reference and study and have been arranged\n         in this listing under descriptive categories similar to those\n         used by Fickénscher in describing his own\n         compositions and by others who have catalogued his musical\n         works.
