Were Abram Penn and Henry County Militia at Battle of Guilford Courthouse?
I spoke recently with staff at the battlefield park on this subject and they presented a handout arguing against this ever having happened on two points. 1. Records indicate that Penn was involved in mustering men to send to Greene and there is no indication at all that he accompanied the Henry County militia, as it was known, when they marched to North Carolina. 2. A signficant portion of those troops did not make it to the battle before fighting ended. Records and correspondence include accounts of arriving in time to hear gunfire in the distance. The timing of the muster and the battle also suggest that it would have been very difficult for these troops to have arrived in time. Also, Penn shortly afterward replaced one company commander who attempted to disband his unit without proceeding to the front. According to the handout from the National Park Service, no one has found any convincing evidence to show that anyone from the Henry County Militia was actually present during the fighting at Guilford Courthouse.

So according to the National Park Service staff at the battlefield, the claim that Penn and the militia were in this battle is based on a misreading of the record. I'm putting this in the discussion for a while, but if it goes unrefuted, I'll change the main page eventually. I am by the way, a direct descendant of Abram Penn. Ftjrwrites (talk) 20:43, 18 August 2010 (UTC)

 * Interesting. But there are sources posted to refute what you're saying. I certainly have respect for the folks at the NPS at the battlefield, but I've visited there too and didn't see the handout you apparently did on the role (or lack thereof) of Penn's presence with Henry County troops at the battle. Is there something you can post from the handout? I'm not disputing whether you spoke to the NPS, but the way wikipedia works is you need to supply a source (as there are sources posted contradicting what you're saying.) I'm not a descendant of Penn, but I am a descendant of Col. George Waller, Major John Redd and other officers in the militia unit in question. MarmadukePercy (talk) 20:51, 18 August 2010 (UTC)

 * If the Henry County militia wasn't at Guilford Court House, you'll also need to inform the Virginia Department of Historic Resources, responsible for the state's system of highway markers, so they can change this sign: MarmadukePercy (talk) 00:24, 19 August 2010 (UTC)

 * You'll also need to let the Virginia Department of Historic Resources know to change the plaque in Patrick County devoted to your ancestor: "During 1780-1781 he [Penn] organized the first Revolutionary troops from Henry and adjoining counties, and led his regiment to aid General Greene in the Battles of Guilford Court House and Eutaw Springs." MarmadukePercy (talk) 05:05, 19 August 2010 (UTC)

 * This is exactly why I posted here rather than directly on the entry. Believe me, I would like to learn that he was there, which the family has certainly always believed as well. I was stunned when the NPS lady gave me the handout. I'll post directly from it shortly, but I don't have it with me at my present location. If anything is eventually posted to the entry itself, I would suggest simply some language saying Penn and the Henry County Militia's exact role at Guilford Courthouse have been disputed. I don't believe anyone is disputing that the militia was at Eutaw Springs and Yorktown, however they seem to be saying that Penn was an administrative officer whom Greene used to muster troops during this part of the war and probably did not personally see any action. Again, as far as I can tell, there's no conclusive evidence either way. On the sign being wrong, if it's like North Carolina, where I reside, the state takes the word of whoever is lobbying for the sign at the time and never attempts to have a historian verify the claims. OK, I'll post the material from the NPS shortly. Ftjrwrites (talk) 13:54, 19 August 2010 (UTC)

 * The handout from the NPS is Guilford Courthouse National Military Park Historical Publication 05-07 and is titled "The Henry County Militia and the Battle of Guilford Courthouse: Colonel Penn's Militiamen Arrive Too Late." If you look at what is currently footnote 5 on the main entry, someone has quoted directly from Penn's March 11, 1781 muster order and then used the footnote to argue that this was timely. The handout makes the opposite claim:

 * "Once called out, assembling the militia would have taken several days. However, presuming the militamen were already gathered and (Major John) Waller received the order the same day, he still had time to reach Greene's headquarters. While it is possible to cover the mean distancy of 60 or so miles from Henry County to Guilford Courthouse in two days by horseback (period militiamen often chose to ride their horses to battle), most of these militiamen were apparently infantry. Covering a hard-marching distance of 15-20 miles a day, an infantry unit could not have made the trip in less than three or four days. Those who record their service in their pension declarations say they arrived for the Guilford battle too late, either 'hearing the guns,' or arriving the day after the battle.' "

 * The handout earlier notes that only a few men on the the muster list filed pension applications and of those who did, none of those who did claims he was actually in the battle. On the other hand, the handout cites quotes from a number of Henry County militiamen on this idea of them arriving after the battle, though none of those quoted are among those named on Penn's muster list. However, one individual quoted who was not on the list, Lewis Franklin, was under Capt. Brice Martin who was on the muster list. According to the NPS handout, Franklin stated on his 1832 penion application that 30-40 of the men under Lyons deserted and the rest arrived too late and were told they weren't needed and should go home. The handout also notes that a Col. James Lyons was placed over another group of Henry County troops, called out in Dec. 1780, that was already in the field near Guilford Courthouse, and it was Lyons who retreated instead of approaching the battle. When Penn later issued another muster order in mid-March, the troops were placed under Major John Waller. It's this part of the detail that supports the idea that Penn was giving orders on behalf of Greene, but was not himself at the front, based on what I was told by the park official, but his personal location on the day of the battle is not discussed. This actually could mean Penn played a more important administrative and political role during this period of the war than has previously been assessed, especially since his cousin John Penn was a state War Commissioner in N.C. and had broad powers in support of Greene's forces.

 * Besides the evidence from the NPS, looking at the footnotes in support of this portion of the entry, they are all pretty much worthless. Geneaological books are notoriously poor sources for history and are themselves usually lacking in supporting documentation. State historical markers are similarly unreliable. The other footnote is mentioned above, and is a questionable interpretation of the muster list.

Ftjrwrites (talk) 17:49, 19 August 2010 (UTC)

 * Thanks for the post. You mention several times a "Major John Waller." I assume you mean, Major George Waller? (At the time of the Battle of Guilford Court House, George Waller was a major. He was later promoted to colonel.) There was no Major John Waller of whom I'm aware in the militia. (There was a Major John Redd, however.) I'll address the rest of the points in a bit. MarmadukePercy (talk) 18:07, 19 August 2010 (UTC)

 * Incidentally, the Brice Martin you mention is discussed here. He was the brother of General Joseph Martin, for whom Martinsville is named, and formed the first militia company from Henry County (next door to Patrick). According to this account (not a textbook): "Major Brice Major Martin’s Company of Henry County Militia received orders on March 11, 1781 to march to Guilford Court House, Hillsboro, North Carolina to assist General Green(e)." MarmadukePercy (talk) 19:06, 19 August 2010 (UTC)

 * As far as the footnotes go, the texts on Henry and Patrick County are not genealogical books, but local history books. Neither one is particularly good, but that's what you often find in local history texts. I just combed an old book on the Battle itself and didn't see anything on the Henry County militia. I would like to know what the sources are for the NPS piece. I had a friend who was at the battlefield park, and was underwhelmed by the explanations given by the park service people there on several points. (But the issue of the role of the Henry County militia wasn't discussed.) I know a couple of folks who might have some information and insight on this topic, but it may take me a bit to get ahold of them. MarmadukePercy (talk) 19:21, 19 August 2010 (UTC)

Friends of the Occoquan
I call for a vote on this. I see an edit war brewing; let's avert that. Personally, I don't see a problem with "Friends of the Occoquan" being listed as an external link. Look at that site. I looked up the domain information online. The domain was created March 2, 2000 (almost 9 1/2 years old). They have an agenda, true - but all non-profits do! Wikipedia is supposed to be NPOV, not the sources. There is no reason to accuse the poster of "vandalism" or "spamming". The reverter claims that this is the (supposed) spammer's personal web page; it certainly is not! The only thing that I see wrong is that the link is highlighted in bold making it stand out from all the other links; this formatting could be removed and the link could stay.

I vote for restoring the link, but removing the bolding. Tim Sabin (talk) 11:29, 9 August 2009 (UTC)

 * You overlooked the "and" in my change summary (I did not state that Friends of the Occoquan is his personal website). Go look over the editor's edit-history - there are two types of edits (self-promotional, and promoting the Friends of the Occoquan.  There is one topical link existing in WP for this. Tedickey (talk) 11:47, 9 August 2009 (UTC)

 * So? Just because this user used Wikipedia to promote his own website previously (yes, I looked at his contributions, so I know he's not doing that now), you're willing to say that all his edits are bad? The Friends of the Occoquan link, which he is inserting now, is relevant to those localities that border the Occoquan River, and, most likely, those localities that are part of the Occoquan River watershed. Removing the bolding will, I believe, get rid of the appearance of impropriety. And, since when is putting an external link to a non-profit considered "spamming"? Especially if it is relevant to the page at hand.

 * Putting the link on a locality like Arlington County is, I agree, spamming, and should be reverted because Arlington County is in no way part of the Occoquan watershed. But, unless you know intimately the geography of the region and thus know when this link insertion is spamming and when it is not, I believe you should leave it alone (it's not like he blanked the page or something). Tim Sabin (talk) 00:44, 10 August 2009 (UTC)

 * Adding it to Chesapeake Bay, Northern Virginia, Fairfax County crossed my threshold for spam. You may want to add it to Arlington, Falls Church and any other place that happens to share watershed, but that would reflect on your opinion. Tedickey (talk) 00:49, 10 August 2009 (UTC)

 * In line with your comments, adding it to anything which is linked to Occoquan River, such as Bull Run would be topical. Tedickey (talk) 00:54, 10 August 2009 (UTC)

 * That's right, Bull Run (and possibly Fauquier county? I don't know) would be OK. My test for spam in this case is relevance. The link passes that test for watershed locations. The bolding issue is minor and can be taken care of. Tim Sabin (talk) 00:57, 10 August 2009 (UTC)

 * I see. Then it's your opinion that this organization should have links added to promote it, irregardless of whether it provides topical information.  I'd suggest that you read WP:EL. Tedickey (talk) 09:16, 10 August 2009 (UTC)

 * 1) I don't see it as promotion. 2) The part of WP:EL that you reference is, I believe, #4. I don't think that applies here. Tim Sabin (talk) 14:05, 10 August 2009 (UTC)

 * sure - the last 3 see-alsos also are promotional in nature (but there's the excuse in those cases that two of them are notable). That's not true of the link we're discussing. Tedickey (talk) 09:15, 11 August 2009 (UTC)

 * The consensus was that maps are useful and the image needed to be of a higher quality. User Erp created a higher quality image. Otherwise, there was no consensus on anything, just a mountain of random, conflicting demands. Abel (talk) 01:49, 29 March 2017 (UTC)

Promotional edits
A newly created account appeared to be adding a (now defunct) website and an individual (Matthew Berdyck) to the controversy section with the edit summary that the individual needed to be recognized. I reverted, seeing this as a promotional edit. However, there's accusations of conspiracy theories and such from that account towards me. I am neither bonded to the subjects nor to the area so I will let other editors (pinging Magnolia677) sift through those edits and allow consensus to take its course. Ifnord (talk) 22:07, 27 December 2019 (UTC)

May 2020 followup
Followup note that there appears to be a concerted effort to aggressively promote Matthew Berdyck. I have already indefinitely blocked one user for that. Please feel free to contact me personally if any further promotion or attacks pertaining to this individual appear anywhere on Wikipedia. I intend to adopt a zero tolerance approach toward such disruption. El_C 20:38, 20 May 2020 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for File:Westmoreland Seal.jpg
File:Westmoreland Seal.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

List of recreational facilities
I reverted the list of recreational facilities. Most of them aren't particularly notable, and it felt very list-crufty to me. Would anyone else happen to have any thoughts on this?

Revision
I have severely trimmed the list. Actually, it is no longer a list, but moved to prose instead. There is no reason to include every little trailhead on Wikipedia, so it is now significantly shorter, with most of what was listed covered in the general statements made here. I also removed the many redlinks, and the links that directed to something unrelated to Wise county -- please check where a wikilink leads before adding it to the encyclopedia. I moved this link to the external links, rather than have it linked to two dozen times in the article. -- Pastordavid 16:26, 24 February 2007 (UTC)

Why Virginia is not actually classified as a commonwealth.
The article being linked to on this page describes the term commonwealth in this context that even though Virginia is styled as a commonwealth, this has "no constitutional impact" on the fact that it's still a state. An actual United States Commonwealth is "a type of organized but unincorporated dependent territory", and Virginia definitely does not fit that definition. Therefore, Virginia is not a commonwealth in the official sense, but a commonwealth in the literal sense that it is a "government based on the common consent of the people", but all states are commonwealths in this sense as well, so it makes little point to distinguish that and add confusion. — D. Wo. 20:28, 4 January 2009 (UTC)

 * Now I think about it, you are correct that this is a distinction without difference, and therefore shouldn't be put in this article because it is confusing. (I'm the guy who changed it back to commonwealth, as a sort of knee-jerk response by a Virginian).
 * For those who want more information, check this - which includes the comment "This does not meanVirginia has a different form of government than any other state." - DavidWBrooks (talk) 21:59, 4 January 2009 (UTC)

Historic developments
Editors need to be careful to have their narratives support the chronology of historic developments. Thus, Powhatan's second capital was not located "at the site of Richmond's Powhatan Hill neighborhood", BUT "Richmond's Powhatan Hill neighborhood was later developed at the site of the ancient capital." Similarly, the Navy base was developed at a site historically associated with the Chiskiack tribe and incorporated roads named after them. Have changed numerous sentences that reversed the chronology.Parkwells (talk) 19:21, 30 September 2013 (UTC)

Maps

Broken Links
For some reason, link #1 in my recent edit works just fine (as in my Mentone edit), but other links did not until I put them into this somewhat unattractive formatting. If anyone can fix these so that they look "normal" and still work properly, it would be appreciated! Thanks! Ecjmartin 17:41, 2 August 2007 (UTC)

Please add important note
Although there are no blacks in this small county we should note that the county overcame its racial disparity in the 2008 presidential primary by voting Seven to Hillary's Five votes for the first major black presidential candidate. This is important to note because even a microcosm of supposed backwardness such as this county is presented, the rest of the country can know that they are trying to overcome racist sentiment.

Population and votes
It's curious that with 67 residents in 2000 and an estimated 55 in 2007, 80 votes were cast in the 2004 presidential election. [] Did LBJ rise from the grave? Dynzmoar (talk) 13:21, 7 August 2008 (UTC)

I noticed there was an outstanding request for assessment on this so I took a quick look. Though there is a reasonable reference list the inline citations are pretty seriously lacking.

Terminology regarding establishment
Is it proper in the State of Texas to refer to a county's "incorporation"? In most US states, counties are not municipal corporations but rather subdivisions of the state, & hence are not truly "incorportated", but that alone doesn't mean that the priciple is universal? Does anyone here really know? If so, please tell me & if possible give a reference. 2600:1004:B110:78AD:ACAE:C2D7:9A2F:4FC2 (talk) 23:40, 18 December 2014 (UTC)

School system
About these edits

That source still does not address whether the Loving county schools post-1970 (until their consolidation in 1978) ever did receive federal funding. It is important that the "As of 1970" qualifier is kept because that is all the source supports. If it is true the federal government did not fund the schools as of 1978, a new source is needed for that claim.

It's also important the section opens with the fact that the county is in the Wink-Loving Independent School District because we need a focus on the present. We need to cite the census map as proof that the Wink-Loving system indeed covers all of the county (as there are cases where a "County ISD" does not cover all of the county). Additionally the section needs to emphasize that in 1970 the county was still trying to racially segregate schools. I am not certain of why that claim was removed.

 * Oh I didn't see that you included that in your edit. When I get back to my computer in less than 10 minutes I will check the sources and then add it back in. Jon698 (talk) 19:46, 28 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Thank you! See the phrase "Last year, the government sternly ordered the Mentone school district to integrate its schools or lose all U. S. assistance." This article Column 1. The article states there were no African-Americans anyway: "There isn't a Negro within 150 miles." (Columns 1-2). In Column 2 a board member stated that the situation de facto "were as integrated as you could get" and that they weren't interested in US govt funding (Column 2). WhisperToMe (talk) 19:56, 28 June 2022 (UTC)

Wondering how to edit this U.S. County Entry? The WikiProject U.S. Counties standards might help.

Dry County
Lubbock County is not dry, however, within the city limits of Lubbock itself, packaged liquor may not be sold, except at a winery. Liquor may be purchased in Lubbock "by the drink" in bars and restaurants. There are many liquor stores in Lubbock County just outside the city limits of Lubbock, most of them just south of Lubbock along a neon-lit stretch of U.S. Highway 87 popularly known as "The Strip".

Something to watch
See this article -. Probably beyond WP:UNDUE at this point but maybe something if it continues. Doubtfully not enough for a stand-alone article on the judge so maybe here to avoid WP:BLP1E? Ravensfire ( talk ) 16:41, 23 August 2012 (UTC)

Talk:Martin County, Texas

Is Martin County part of the Midland Metropolitan Statistical area?

This article says that it is, "Martin County is included in the Midland, TX Metropolitan Statistical Area.". This links to the article on the Midand Metropolitan Statistcal Area which says that it is comprised of only Midland County. Clearly these articles contradict each other and one or both should be corrected.

First sheep herder
"The first sheeper herder of the community was Ivy Richards, an orphan boy" p. 41. No man's land becomes a county. True or even important enough to include? Sillyputty1967 (talk) 16:18, 15 November 2022 (UTC)

Telegraph
"Fort Phantom Hill Trail," a military route that connected Fort Phantom Hill and Austin passed through Mills County and was the location of the first telegraph line." No Man's Land ... talks about a telgraph line that ran to Fort Concho, and its office was at the hotel at Williams Ranch. How does it fit into Fort Phantom Hill? Sillyputty1967 (talk) 16:19, 15 November 2022 (UTC)

Tillable land stats
One report from 1957 identifies only nineteen percent of the land can be tilled, placing an emphasis on grazing land ... This figure probably needs to be updated with current info. Sillyputty1967 (talk) 16:22, 15 November 2022 (UTC)

Politics
Would like to see the politics section fleshed out a lot more. Need to find better sources supporting political history. Sillyputty1967 (talk) 16:26, 15 November 2022 (UTC)

Communities
I have not gone through the community section of "Mills County Memories" and added any additional info from that source. Needs to be done. Sillyputty1967 (talk) 16:30, 15 November 2022 (UTC)

San Saba Peak
Is San Saba Peak part of the Cowhouse Mountains? Sillyputty1967 (talk) 16:38, 15 November 2022 (UTC)

County Flower
In "A No Man's Land Becomes a County," on page 151, there is mention of the Texas Plume Standing Cypress as the county flower. I think I'll add it, along with an image. Sillyputty1967 (talk) 17:31, 15 November 2022 (UTC)

Farming and Ranching Section
Farming and ranching section needs to be organized better/tightened up. Sillyputty1967 (talk) 13:28, 17 November 2022 (UTC)

Not in Montgomery County
As distant as it seems from Houston, the new Exxon site will still be in Harris County. See Google Maps; there is a new satellite image of the cleared land. Therefore, I've removed this:
