		The Virginia deer is common in the bottomlands; a few beaver still frequent the remoter streams; in the higher portions are still a few fl bears and pumas, besides the lynx, the Virginia varying hare, the woodchuck, the red and the fox squirrel and flying squirrels.
		The population of Virginia in 1890 was 1,655,980; in 1900, 1,854,184; and in 1910, 2,061,612.
		Virginia has had six state constitutions: the first was adopted in 1776, the second in 1830, the third in 1851, the fourth in 1864, the fifth in 1869, and the sixth, the present, in 1902.

	Gold In Virginia - Brochure
		Virginia was one of the first gold-producing states in the nation.
		The first lode deposit was discovered in Virginia in 1806 at the Whitehall mine, located 1.5 miles (2.4 km) northwest of Shady Grove Church in the western part of Spotsylvania County.
		Early in the 1800s gold in Virginia was extracted from shallow saprolites (deeply weathered near surface lode deposits) and from placer deposits; recovery was mechanically simple and labor was inexpensive.

		Virginia has a diverse landscape that ranges from high rocky summits in the Blue Ridge mountains to low-lying barrier islands exposed to the Atlantic Ocean.
		The Piedmont of Virginia extends eastward from the Blue Ridge to the Fall Line, where Paleozoic-age and older igneous and metamorphic rocks are covered by unconsolidated sediments of the Atlantic Coastal Plain.
		To its east is the Fall Zone, which separates the province from the Coastal Plain, and to its west are the mountains of the Blue Ridge province.

	Vasan Kesavan & Michael Stokes Paulsen, Is West Virginia Unconstitutional? (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-23)
		When the Commonwealth of Virginia announced it was seceding from the Union, the northwestern corner of Virginia formed a rump government-in-exile, declared itself the lawful government of Virginia, and gave "Virginia's" consent to the creation of a new State of West Virginia consisting of essentially the same northwestern corner of old Virginia.
		Congress and the Lincoln administration recognized the northwestern rump as the legitimate government of Virginia, and voted to admit West Virginia as a State.
		This article takes on the odd but amazingly complicated (and occasionally interesting) constitutional question of whether West Virginia is legitimately a State of the Union or is instead an illegal, breakaway province of Virginia.

	Development and Analysis of Regional Curves for Streams in the Non-Urban Valley and Ridge Physiographic Province, ...
		Bankfull stream characteristics were assessed for stream reaches at 41 streamflow-gaging stations in the Valley and Ridge Physiographic Province in Maryland, Virginia, and West Virginia.
		There were differences in slope and intercept between the two bankfull discharge test relations and a difference in intercept for the width test relations at the 95-percent confidence level.
		Regression models developed for the 1.5-year discharge for all streamflow-gaging stations with peak discharge data throughout Virginia (n = 486) and throughout the Valley and Ridge Physiographic Province in Virginia (n = 147) were compared to the regional curve relating bankfull discharge to drainage area.

	TIMING OF GRENVILLE-AGE MAGMATISM AND DEFORMATION, BLUE RIDGE PROVINCE, CENTRAL VIRGINIA (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-23)
		New geologic mapping, petrologic studies, and SHRIMP U-Pb dating of zircons have established an initial framework for the timing of Grenville-age tectonic events in the Virginia Blue Ridge from Thornton Gap south to Wolftown.
		Temporal calibration of these magmatic and deformation events indicates that Grenville-age orogenesis in the central Virginia Blue Ridge involved an extended interval characterized by episodic emplacement of compositionally distinct, largely granitic magmas punctuated by at least two periods of regional deformation.
		These data underscore the episodic nature of orogenic processes associated with amalgamation of Rodinia and establish an initial basis for regional correlation with Mesoproterozoic tectonic events that occurred elsewhere along the Laurentian margin.
