Virginia Map


Greetings From Virginia
Site of the first English settlement in the New World at Jamestown in 1607. Home of Presidents Washington, Jefferson, Monroe, Madison, Tyler, Harrison and Wilson. Capital of the Confederate States during the Civil War and site of more than half the battles of that war. From Atlantic beaches to Appalachian mountains, a wonderful state to visit
postmarked in 1994 with US 19 cent balloon stamp.

I have a 1950's postcard from Myrtle Beach and the sender writes on it:
This is a nice beach, but don't change your plans, Virginia Beach is nicer.
