The Person of record was James Colson (1768-1824) who\n         had been enslaved by a William Nelson of York County Virginia.\n         He was emancipated in Williamsburg around 1791 and it is\n         certain that by 1794 James Colson was living in Petersburg\n         Virginia.","James Colson became a barber. This was one of the\n         occupations free African American men were allowed to engage\n         in. In 1804, Colson purchased a lot on Union Street and around\n         1820 another piece of property on Oak Street. James Colson\n         died in 1825 and his son William took over the Business. In\n         1826 William Colson married Sarah Elebek. One of five children\n         fathered by Major Elebek. Elebek like Colson was also a barber\n         and a free African American.","William Colson became interested in the American\n         Colonization Society's (1817-1895) efforts to remove to Africa\n         all African Americans to what would become Liberia. At this\n         time in Petersburg the Colson and Elebek families were members\n         of the Methodist Church. Here they met another family by the\n         name of Roberts. The Roberts and Colson family combined and\n         formed a mercantile business, and Roberts and his family\n         emigrated to Liberia. William Nelson Colson remained in\n         Petersburg and managed the business from the U.S. side. In\n         1835 William Colson went to Liberia to confer with Roberts\n         where he became ill and died.","Three children came from the Union of William and Sarah\n         Elebek Colson.

John Henry Hill was born\n         in King and Queen county Virginia in 1828. Like many others\n         born into bondage, Hill was trained as a carpenter and was\n         hired out by his owner. Although a native of King and Queen,\n         Hill was either sold or rented out in Petersburg and in1853\n         was owned by a John Mitchell. Hill had also married a free\n         African American woman, Rose McCray and they were the parents\n         of two young sons.","Hill was enslaved and in 1853 his owner had decided to sell\n         him. It is unclear how Hill found out. His possible sale and\n         instead of being sold, he escaped. Hill found his way to\n         Canada where his wife later joined him, and the seven Hill\n         daughters were born. After the Civil War Hill returned to\n         Petersburg, became a prosperous Businessman and engaged in\n         local politics.","Edna Meade Colson was born October 7, 1888, in Petersburg,\n         Virginia, the oldest of five children to James Major Colson,\n         Jr., and his wife Kate Hill Colson who was one of the\n         daughters of John Henry Hill.","Included in these materials is an interesting letter from\n         William Still and in the Alice and Henry Colson Jackson Papers\n         correspondence regarding the House of Roberts and Colson.","Edna Meade Colson was a product of the Petersburg public\n         school system.

More familiarly known by his middle name, Graham Claytor matriculated at Virginia Agricultural and Mechanical College (later Virginia Tech) as an electrical engineering student in 1902. Following his father's death, Claytor left school in his junior year to work as a student engineer in General Electric's Lynn, Massachusetts testing plant. In 1907, Claytor accepted a position with the Roanoke Railway and Electric Company as a salesman; in 1908, he was appointed an electrical engineer. That same year, Claytor married Gertrude Harris Boatwright, a Virginia poet. The couple would have three sons.","Through successive promotions, Claytor had become general superintendent of Roanoke Railway and Electric and the Lynchburg Traction and Light Company by 1914. His career on temporary hold while serving as a captain in the U.S. Army Quartermaster Corps from 1918 to 1919, Claytor afterward resumed his previous position and in 1923, was named chief engineer for American Electric Power Company of Philadelphia. In 1926, Claytor became the company's general manager. The following year, the company was purchased by American Gas and Electric Company of New York. Claytor was transferred to New York City and appointed vice president and director of a number of the company's subsidiaries, including Appalachian Electric Power Company, Kentucky and West Virginia Power Company, West Virginia Power Company, Radford Limestone Corporation, and Franklin Real Estate Company. As vice president of Appalachian Power, Claytor directed construction of the Appalachian Power Company's dam on the New River in Pulaski County, Virginia. Completed in 1939, the dam created Claytor Lake, named in his honor. Claytor retired in 1954, but returned to serve as executive vice president of American Electric Power from 1960. After retiring from American Electric again in 1962, he continued to serve as president of Richardson-Wayland Electric Corporation (Roanoke, Virginia).","Claytor remained an ardent supporter of his alma mater and in the 1950s served on the board of directors of both the VPI Alumni Association and the VPI Educational Foundation. Chief among Claytor's other interests was ham radio, a hobby he pursued for more than 25 years. Following his 1962 retirement, Claytor resided in the cottage he had built on Claytor Lake. Graham Claytor died in Roanoke February 28, 1971, and was buried in Evergreen Burial Park, Roanoke, Virginia.","The guide to the W.

During his administration, which began 2 July 1962, VPI became known as \"Virginia's Land-Grant University.\" There was a shift from traditional technically-oriented education to a more comprehensive University-oriented education, with programs being expanded through the doctoral level in many non-science areas. The culmination of this shift and expansion in mission came in 1970 when the Legislature approved a name change reflective of VPI's growth: Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University.","Major events of the Hahn administration included abolishment of the VPI-Radford merger, causing a large increase in the number of women students at Tech, and a decision by the Board of Visitors to make participation in the military program optional, which resulted in a decline in Corps of Cadets membership but an increase in male Virginians choosing to attend the University. There were also numerous organizational and academic changes and improvements, including the establishment of a University-wide Research Division and a University-wide Extension Division, both in 1966. Also the physical plant continued to expand during this administration.","Some of the later years of the Hahn administration were marked by student demonstrations and protests, like those which occurred at many university campuses in the late 1960s and early 1970s.","After twelve years in office, Hahn sent a letter to faculty and staff in August 1974 indicating his decision to resign as president, stating that \"it is not in the best interest of a university for one person to serve as president for too long a time.\" In November, William Lavery was named to succeed Hahn, beginning in January 1975.","The guide to the Records of the Office of the President, T.

During his administration, which began 2 July 1962, VPI became known as \"Virginia's Land-Grant University.\" There was a shift from traditional technically-oriented education to a more comprehensive University-oriented education, with programs being expanded through the doctoral level in many non-science areas. The culmination of this shift and expansion in mission came in 1970 when the Legislature approved a name change reflective of VPI's growth: Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University.","Major events of the Hahn administration included abolishment of the VPI-Radford merger, causing a large increase in the number of women students at Tech, and a decision by the Board of Visitors to make participation in the military program optional, which resulted in a decline in Corps of Cadets membership but an increase in male Virginians choosing to attend the University. There were also numerous organizational and academic changes and improvements, including the establishment of a University-wide Research Division and a University-wide Extension Division, both in 1966. Also the physical plant continued to expand during this administration.","Some of the later years of the Hahn administration were marked by student demonstrations and protests, like those which occurred at many university campuses in the late 1960s and early 1970s.","After twelve years in office, Hahn sent a letter to faculty and staff in August 1974 indicating his decision to resign as president, stating that \"it is not in the best interest of a university for one person to serve as president for too long a time.\" In November, William Lavery was named to succeed Hahn, beginning in January 1975.","The guide to the Records of the Office of the President, T.
