Lynchburg History began in 2004. The site was developed and is maintained by Nancy B. Marion, owner of both the Design Group and the Blackwell Press. Marion also publishes Lynch’s Ferry magazine and produces the “Mystery Picture of the Week” column for Lynchburg’s News & Advance. Her award-winning books include Lynchburg 100: An Illustrated Guide to Lynchburg Landmarks, a publication she coauthored with renown architect S. Allen Chambers in 2007. Many of the photographs, maps, illustrations, and postcards on this website have come from private collections. Others are here thanks to the collaborative spirit of local organizations and businesses, including the Jones Memorial Library, The News & Advance, City of Lynchburg, Virginia Department of Historic Resources, Virginia Department of Transportation, and Lynchburg Historical Foundation. Lynchburg History is an ongoing project. If you have something to add—more information about a specific photo, knowledge of a collection, old snapshots of people and places in Central Virginia—please feel free to contact us. We look forward to hearing from you. |
