Joining the army on 14 May 1942, he was a bomber pilot in Italy and attained the rank of sergeant. He flew twenty-one missions before he was wounded in the left eye on 16 November 1944.

Additionally, there are six government-issued World War II ration books from 1942 used by Andrew Morris Love and his family, one letter from Sara Love to her parents, and a copy of one letter to John Moore Douglass from his brother James Edwards.","The third part of the collection contains handwritten and typed letters mailed in 1945 to James Edwards Douglass from army friends while he was in recovery. In this group there are also some blotters from the 1940s with pictures of women painted on them. Additionally, there are many government documents regarding the release of soldiers from the army, including information booklets with instructions for re-integrating into civilian life and some forms for filing a claim with the National Service Life Insurance.

Accession 38943, State \nRecords Collection, The Library of Virginia, Richmond, Virginia.","Wallace, Lee A. 1990. 17th Virginia Infantry.","George R. Head (1822-1894) was a prominent political, business, and military\nleader of Leesburg, Virginia. The son of George Head (1783-1870) and Mary \nGover Head (1785-1823), he was one of six children from this marriage. After \nHead's mother's death in 1823, his father married Hannah J. Gover (1799-after \n1870). Both Head and his father served in the 57th Regiment of the VA Militia. In \n1848, Head married Sarah Virginia Gover (1823-before 1878), and the couple \nhad six children, four who survived to adulthood: Ann 'Nannie' Head (1849-\nafter 1880), William Head (1852 - 1892), Rosellar Head Johnson (1853 - 1885), \nand Susan Virginia Head (1855 - 1912). He was a member of the Methodist \nEpiscopal Church. Active in public life, Head served as a Justice of the Peace \nand as a member of the Leesburg Town Council beginning in 1858. He also \nestablished himself in business as a whitesmith or tinsmith, producing a number \nof goods including guns. In March 1861, he placed an advertisement in The \nMirror announcing that he had just received \"a fine lot of Colt's Revolvers which \nwill be sold at reduced prices.\"","Upon the occurrence of John Brown's raid of the government armory and arsenal\nat Harpers Ferry on 16 October 1869, Charles B. Tebbs, among many others in \nLoudoun County, participated in raising a volunteer company 'The Loudoun \nGuard' for the protection of the border. This company, ostensibly attached to the \n57th Regiment (Loudoun County), Virginia Militia, was accepted into state service \nat Leesburg on 22 April 1861, under the command of Captain Tebbs. Head \nserved as First Lieutenant. On 24 April 1861, the Loudoun Guard was ordered to \nproceed to Alexandria, Virginia, where it was officially mustered into service on \n23 May 1861, by Major George W. Brent (1821-1872) as part of the newly \norganized 17th Regiment Virginia Infantry. The next day the Loudoun Guard was \nsent to Manassas Junction and nearby Camp Pickens, where Captain Tebbs \nremained in command of the Loudoun Guard until June when he was promoted \nto Lieutenant Colonel and reassigned to the 8th Virginia Regiment. On June 29, \n1861, Head was appointed Captain of Company C of the 17th Virginia Infantry \nRegiment, one of ten companies in the newly formed unit.","As Captain, Head oversaw daily duty rosters, correspondence, and requisition\nrecords for Company C dating between 1861 and April 1862. He also managed \npayroll, funds, and supplies for the company. He was noted for his actions on 18 \nJuly 1861 at Blackburn's Ford just before the First Battle of Manassas. In his \nreport of the action Colonel Montgomery D. Course noted \"gallant conduct\" of \nHead and four other officers \"who were actively and fearlessly employed during \nthe engagement\" where \"the fire was hottest.\" After this engagement the 17th \nVirginia was stationed at Camp Harrison near Fairfax Courthouse. The Regiment \nwas reorganized at Yorktown, Virginia in April 1862 during the Siege of \nYorktown. On 23 April 1862, Head narrowly avoided being struck by an exploding \nshell whole on duty at Dam Number 4. There is no record of Head incurring an \ninjury during this incident. On 28 April 1862, Head was re-elected Captain of \nCompany C, but resigned his commission shortly after his election.","In September of 1862 he was recommended for an appointment to the \nOrdinance Department. Created by the General Assembly of Virginia on 25 \nJanuary 1861, the Virginia Ordinance Department was leased to the Confederate \nGovernment and took charge of maintaining the Richmond Armory and \nmanufacturing arms for the war effort. Head served the Ordinance Department in \nLynchburg and at the Virginia Armory in Richmond until the end of the War. In \nJanuary 1864 Head was sent to Lynchburg to investigate issues with the \nmanufacture of \"Williams Guns\", a breech loading rapid fire canon first deployed \nby the Confederacy at the Battle of Seven Pines on 31 May 1862. Head \nconfirmed the guns were defective.","Following the end of the Civil War, Head returned to Leesburg and established a \nbusiness manufacturing stoves. He continued to be active in politics, serving as \na Magistrate for the 8th District in 1868, as Mayor of Leesburg from 1869-1884 \nand as a Town Councilman for more than 40 years. Head was an active \nDemocrat, and was Chairman of the Loudoun County Democratic Committee \nfrom 1892-1894. He was regularly nominated as a candidate for the House of \nDelegates, winning elections in 1879 and 1890. In 1885 and 1886 he was \nappointed to serve as Leesburg's Postmaster by President Grover Cleveland \n(1837-1908). Head was active in the Clinton Hatcher Camp of Confederate \nVeterans and in fraternal organizations. He was a Mason and was elected as a \nGrandmaster of the Oddfellows in 1869. His death was recorded in the 1 \nFebruary 1894 edition of The Mirror with an obituary entitled \"A Valuable Citizen \nPasses Away.\" Head is buried in Union Cemetery.","Laura Christiansen, 25 July 2016","Civil War Research Collection, 1859-1865 (SC 0095);\nLoudoun County Military Records (M 015); Preservation Society of Loudoun \nCounty Cemetery Committee Records, 1990 (M 006); Leesburg Civil War \nCollection, 1861-1865, (M 075); Town of Leesburg, Virginia Records, 1813-\npresent; Clinton Hatcher Camp, Sons of Confederate Veterans Collection (M \n025).","The George R. Head collection consists of materials created or collected by\nCaptain George R. Head (1822-1894) of Leesburg, Virginia. The collection \nincludes family correspondence and papers, military correspondence and \nrecords, publications, currency and ephemera. The collection also contains \nartifacts including a canteen, haversack, holster, belt and buckles used by Head \nduring the American Civil War. A 2005 inventory of documents, typed \ntranscriptions of selected letters and documents in the collection, and research \nrelated to George R. Head's confederate military service accompanies the \ncollection.","Family correspondence and papers are arranged chronologically and date from \n1847-1897. Correspondence includes letters to and from family members and \nfrom Head's fellow Odd Fellows and Masonic Lodge members. Of note are \nletters sent by Head to his wife Sarah Gover Head during June and July of 1862. \nOther Loudoun county correspondents include George Head's brother Reverend \nNelson Head (1811 -1902), George W. Janney (1821-1873), and Edward \nNichols (1847-1923). Family papers contain a handwritten funeral announcement \nfor Lydia Head (fl. 1775 -1832), paternal grandmother of George R. Head and \nepitaphs drafted for his wife Sarah Virginia Gover and for her father, Samuel \nGover, Jr. (1795-1875).","The bulk of the collection relates to Head's military service, first with the 57th \nRegiment, Virginia Militia, at the outset of the Civil War as 1st Lieutenant in the \nLoudoun Guard and later as Captain of Company C, of the Virginia 17th Infantry \nRegiment. Included are daily rosters, correspondence, and requisition records \nfor the Company C dating between 1861 and April 1862 when Head resigned his \ncommission. In September of 1862 he was recommended for an appointment to \nthe Ordinance Department. Correspondence and records from Head's Ordinance \nDepartment service are included in the collection. Letters relating to the Head's \ninvestigation of inherent problems with Williams Guns are of particular note. \nOther Civil War era materials include pamphlets, currency, and other ephemera \nsuch as postal covers. Artifacts in the collection also relate to Head's military \nservice. Included are a canteen, haversack, holster, belt, belt buckles, and five \nbuttons used or worn by Head during the American Civil War. The canteen is \nparticularly unique. The design is similar to other tin drum canteens issued by the \nConfederacy in 1861; however, Head's canteen features a hand-drawn image of \nthe seal of Virginia including the motto Sic Semper Tyrannis and the figures of \nVirtus and Tyrannus. Two small leather coin purses are also in the collection.","Physical characteristics and conditions affect use of this \nmaterial. Photocopying not permitted.

Many early German settlers in Lovettsville originated in the Palatinate region of Germany and brought the Reformed Church, a Calvinist sect of Protestantism, with them.  By 1748 a growing community was established in upper Loudoun County under the leadership of a Reformed Church elder, William Wenner (fl. 1720 -1750). Prior to the construction of a church building, the congregation worshipped in members' homes.  A log structure was built where Wenner led prayer services and performed marriages, baptisms, and funerals. The building also served as a school, with Wenner acting as schoolmaster.  In 1766 a Reformed Church Minister, Reverend Charles Lange (fl. 1750-1768) from Frederick, MD took over pastoral care of the congregation.","A second log church was built to replace the original structure around 1775, and this in turn was replaced by a brick church building around 1819.  This building was demolished in 1901, and its bricks were used by the congregation for constructing a new church building within the town of Lovettsville which was re-named St. James. Up until that time, the three previous churches were known simply as the \"German Reformed Church\".  Mergers in the 20th century resulted with St. James becoming part of the Evangelical and Reformed Church, the United Church of Christ, and finally,  St. James United Church of Christ.  Saint James Reformed Cemetery remains at the site of the three earlier church buildings.","None","Processed by Laura Christiansen, research by Jack Craig, 8 June 2016","Loudoun County, VA Cemetery Collection, 1990- (M 017), Thomas Balch Library, Leesburg, VA.","This collection consists of one undated 10 inch x 12 inch sepia toned photograph of the German Reformed Church constructed around 1819 in Lovettsville, VA.
