About Alexandria, VA

On October 21, 1669 a patent granted 6,000 acres (24 km 2) to Robert Howsing for transporting 120 people to the Colony of Virginia. : 5 That tract would later become the City of Alexandria. : 5 Virginia's comprehensive Tobacco Inspection Law of 1730 mandated that all tobacco grown in the colony must be brought to locally designated public warehouses for inspection before sale. One of the sites designated for a warehouse on the upper Potomac River was at the mouth of Hunting Creek. However, the ground proved to be unsuitable, and the warehouse was built half a mile up-river, where the water was deep near the shore.
