In the process of conducting our research for The Encyclopedia of Norfolk Virginia we are finding literally thousands of additional fascinating tidbits of information about Norfolk's geographical history, much of which may not appear in the Encyclopedia itself. In order to share some of that with our Internet visitors, we are placing in this section of NorfolkHistory.com some of these tidbits of Norfolk history and Norfolk geography, as we discover them.

User note: Unless an item is enclosed within quotation marks, it is the chief editor's (Irwin M. Berent's) words. The sources for all information are cited herein. However, as this is an ongoing work, some citations may be incomplete until this section of the website has been thoroughly edited. In addition, many of the cross-references (e.g., "See Part ZZZ") and references to illustrations (e.g., "See Fig. ZZZ") are currently incomplete.
