Before moving to Arlington, Mrs. Campbell was a college administrator at Moravian College for Women in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, and at Mary Baldwin College in Staunton, Virginia. In 1936, she married Edmund D. Campbell, a Washington lawyer, and moved to Arlington. Mrs. Campbell has long been involved in Arlington County educational and civic issues and active in many civic associations throughout her long life. She was a member of the American Association of University Women, the League of Women Voters, Church Women United, Women's Democratic Club, and the Arlington County Citizen's Committee for School Improvement (CCSI). Mrs. Campbell's involvement in the CCSI prompted her to run as a candidate for the first elected Arlington County School Board in 1947, and she served from 1948 through 1955. In 1956, the Virginia General Assembly mandated appointed school boards and Mrs. Campbell accepted an appointment, serving from 1960 to 1963.  \n","In 1956, Elizabeth Campbell joined the Greater Washington Educational Television Association and became president of the organization the following year. This group worked to establish Channel 26 as an educational television station, as appointed by the Federal Communications Commission in 1952. In October of 1961, with funding and infrastructure in place, the FCC application for WETA went through, and the station started broadcast.

Netherton and her husband Ross co-wrote a book on Arlington County titled  Arlington County in Virginia: A Pictorial History  in 1987. Born in Illinois, Netherton moved to Northern Virginia in 1950 after working on the Manhattan Project during World War II and found that the area, while in a period of transition from rural to suburban, was historically interesting and important. She worked for Fairfax County as a staff member for the Office of Comprehensive Planning and compiled an 800-page history of the county for the U.S. Bicentennial celebrations in 1976. The Nethertons published many works on the history and development of Northern Virginia, especially in Fairfax County, where they resided, including  Memories of Beautiful Burke, Virginia  (1988),  Fairfax County, Virginia: A History  (1978), and  Reston: A New Town in the Old Dominion  (1989). Additionally, Nan volunteered for the Fairfax Historic Landmarks Commission, was elected president of the Northern Virginia Association for History in 1988, and received the Association's Joseph Harsh Award for her work in historic preservation of local history in 2000.\n","The records of other Arlington historical researchers and authors can be found in  RG 23, the Personal Papers of Eleanor Templeman ,  RG 91, Papers of Dorothea Abbott ,  RG 103, Freeman's Village and Reconstruction Collection , and  RG 354, Papers of C.

For most his childhood, Branch lived with his father in Arlington, Virginia, his mother having passed away prior to his fourteenth birthday.  Branch attended two years of college and worked as a Porter for the Virginia State A.B.C. He was married to Claretha (Clara) Grey and passed away on March 19, 1970.  \n","Present-day Arlington Fire Station No. 8, also known as the Hall's Hill Volunteer Fire Department (HHVFD), was organized in 1918 by the Black residents of Hall's Hill as a volunteer unit. It was Arlington County's first Black-operated fire station. Barred from joining the Arlington County Fireman's Association, the firemen of East Arlington and Hall's Hill united to form the Arlington County Colored Fireman's Association (originally named the East Arlington and Hall's Hill Fireman's Association) on July 14, 1938. Robert Branch was elected the association's first president.\n","Robert Branch was also a member and president of the John. M. Langston Citizens Association (also known as the Hall's Hill Citizen Association). The organization was founded in 1924 and still runs to this day. \n","Researchers can find related information on Arlington's Volunteer Fire Departments in  RG 4, Records of the Arlington Volunteer Fire Department . This collection contains materials on Arlington's Volunteer Fire Departments #1-7.  RG 82, Personal Papers of Herb and Mayme Smith  contains information on Herb's involvement with the Clarendon Volunteer Fire Department #3. Researchers should also see  RG 32, County Manager's Library , Subgroup 2, Fire Department, for more information on the County's official Fire Department.\n","Researchers can find more information on the John M. Langston Citizens Association in  RG 349, Dorothy M. Hamm Papers .\n","This collection contains materials relating to various Arlington organizations with which Robert Branch was involved, including the Arlington County Volunteer Fire Department #8, the Arlington Community War Fund Campaign, the J. M. Langston Citizens Association, and the Arlington Tuberculosis Association. Robert N. Branch's personal papers cover the years 1919 to 1958, but the bulk date from 1939 to 1945. The collection is small and only contains a few materials per topic area. The entire collection currently measures .2 linear feet.\n","File 1, Poll Tax and General Tax Materials , contains a copy of H.R. 7534 outlawing poll taxes, two Congressional Record broadsides arguing against poll taxes, and a list of Arlington male and female colored voters who paid the poll tax in 1937, 1938, and 1939. It also includes Robert's and Carletha's 1943 tax bills, blank tax forms, and Arlington County finance reports.\n","File 5, Ration Books, 1943 , contains four ration books; two War Ration Book No. 3 and two War Ration Book No. 4, one of each issued to Robert and Clara, respectively. They are all housed within a Washington D.C. souvenir case.\n","File 9, Miscellaneous Materials, 1919, 1939, 1940, 1943, 1952, 1964 , contains Dunbar High School's May 1919 Crimson \u0026 Black, a program to the 73rd Anniversary of the Mt. Salvation Baptist Church, and a program from Albert Branch's (Robert Branch's son) graduation from Washington Lee High School, among other items. \n","It is unclear why Branch had the May 1919  Crimson \u0026 Black . Dunbar High School was the first black public high school in America, and in the first half of the twentieth century, it was considered an academically elite public school. As of May 1919, Branch would have been 35 and therefore the program is not from his time at the school. It is possible Branch is an alumnus of the school or knew a student who attended in 1919 or admired the school and therefore purchased and kept the program.\n","There are a small number of photographs in this collection containing images of Branch's all-black baseball team, Volunteer Fire Department #8, and a few personal photos. There are two photos of the same twelve children, one on the front steps of Branch's home and one at a dining room table eating dinner. It is likely that these children were Robert and Carletha's, but there is no archival evidence that they had any children beyond Albert and Arthur (born 1945). \n","There are no restrictions.\n","English\n"],"unitid_tesim":["RG 164\n"],"normalized_title_ssm":["Personal Papers of Robert N.

Salvation Baptist Church, and a program from Albert Branch's (Robert Branch's son) graduation from Washington Lee High School, among other items. \n","It is unclear why Branch had the May 1919  Crimson \u0026 Black . Dunbar High School was the first black public high school in America, and in the first half of the twentieth century, it was considered an academically elite public school. As of May 1919, Branch would have been 35 and therefore the program is not from his time at the school. It is possible Branch is an alumnus of the school or knew a student who attended in 1919 or admired the school and therefore purchased and kept the program.\n","There are a small number of photographs in this collection containing images of Branch's all-black baseball team, Volunteer Fire Department #8, and a few personal photos. There are two photos of the same twelve children, one on the front steps of Branch's home and one at a dining room table eating dinner. It is likely that these children were Robert and Carletha's, but there is no archival evidence that they had any children beyond Albert and Arthur (born 1945). \n"],"userestrict_html_tesm":["\u003cp\u003eThere are no restrictions.\n\u003c/p\u003e"],"userestrict_heading_ssm":["Use Restrictions\n"],"userestrict_tesim":["There are no restrictions.\n"],"language_ssim":["English\n"],"total_component_count_is":11,"online_item_count_is":0,"component_level_isim":[0],"sort_isi":0,"timestamp":"2026-05-20T18:29:52Z"}]}},"label":"Breadcrumbs"}}},"links":{"self":"https://arvasarchive.org/catalog/viar_ViAr00164"}},{"id":"viar_ViAr00108","type":"collection","attributes":{"title":"Personal Papers of Roye Lowry, \n1958-1985","creator":{"id":"https://arvasarchive.org/catalog/viar_ViAr00108#creator","type":"document_value","attributes":{"value":"Lowry, Roye L.\n","label":"Creator"}},"abstract_or_scope":{"id":"https://arvasarchive.org/catalog/viar_ViAr00108#abstract_or_scope","type":"document_value","attributes":{"value":"\u003cp\u003eRG 108 measures 2.5 linear feet and spans the years 1958 to 1985.
