	Bacon's Castle - APVA Preservation Virginia
		Bacon's Castle is located on Route 617 in Surry County, just north of the intersection of Route 617 and Route 10.
		With its cruciform shape, triple chimneys and curvilinear gables, Bacon's Castle is a rare surviving example of Jacobean architecture in America.
		A supporter of the colonial governor and member of the House of Burgesses, Allen was driven from his house in 1676 when Nathaniel Bacon and men staged what came to be known as Bacon's Rebellion.

		Bacon's Rebellion was an uprising in 1675-76 of between 500 and 800 Virginia farmers, under the leadership of Nathaniel Bacon (1647-76), against the colonial authorities headed by Sir William Berkeley, governor of Virginia.
		Bacon was also aware of the jealous felt by many of his neighbors, toward the lucrative trade in furs and copper, which the Governor of Virginia enjoyed, exclusively, with the Occaneechis.
		In 1713, the colony of Virginia signed a treaty of peace with the Occaneechi, and were given a reservation in Brunswick County and a Trading fort called Fort Christianna.

	Bacon's Rebellion
		Bacon was a troublemaker and schemer whose father sent him to Virginia in the hope that he would mature.
		After Bacon drove the Pamunkeys from their nearby lands in his first action, Berkeley exercised one of the few instances of control over the situation that he was to have, by riding to Bacon's headquarters at Henrico with 300 "well armed" gentlemen.
		Bacon would then be relieved of the council seat that he had won for his actions that year, but he was to be given a fair trial for his disobedience.

	Swamps of Virginia
		The 144 swamps of Virginia with a name are all in the Coastal Plain (you can tell by the counties in which they are located...), with the exception of Bearwallow in Sheanandoah National Park, on the border of Page and Warren counties.
		Flat topography and the presence of water are both essential to the formation of swamps, while waterfalls require topographic relief in addition to water....
		In the Piedmont and higher-elevations of Virginia, the water keeps flowing downhill and rarely forms swamps - so the bogs in the Appalachians are uniquely valuable habitat...

	JIMMY AKIN.ORG: Lovecraft Makes A Slip
		So: Unless they have "villages" in Virginia (and so far as I know, they don't), what we have here is a flat-out mistake on Lovecraft's part, letting his native New England idiom intrude onto a story about the South.
		Jan 8, 2005 2:07:35 PM The issue is not whether there is a government or other database somewhere that, presumably based on population, lists certain communities as villages, nor is it whether there may be state or federal laws or regulations that classify certain communities in those states as villages.
		The point is that the inhabitants of these regions (certainly in Oklahoma, and I suspect, in Virginia) do not colloquially use the word "village" to describe such communities.
