The Charlottesville Dogwood Festival
During the month of April, the residents of Albemarle, Buckingham, Fluvanna, Greene, Louisa, Madison, Nelson, and Orange Counties converge on the city of Charlottesville to celebrate the beauty of Central Virginia and honor the state flower. Beginning in 1950 as the Apple Harvest Festival, the festival took on its current name, the Charlottesville Dogwood Festival, in 1958. Each year, Charlottesville comes alive not only with the blooms and blossoms of spring, but with fireworks, amusement rides, and a host of local royalty. The beauty of the Blue Ridge Mountains and fall foliage as well as breathtaking springs and some of the nation's oldest and most prestigious plantations make this area one of the most popular places to visit in the South. The Charlottesville Dogwood Festival takes pride in being a long-standing part of an area rich in tradition and heritage.

Isaac Gilbert
Matthew Gilbert (d.1680) emigrated in 1637 from England to Boston, Massachusetts, and moved in 1638 to New Haven, Connecticut. Isaac Gilbert (1742-1822), a great grandson, served in an American unit of the British Army in the French and Indian War and also in the Revolutionary War. He and his family emigrated from Connecticut to Gagetown, New Brunswick in 1783. Descendants lived in New Brunswick, Ontario and elsewhere in Canada. Many descendants immigrated to Michigan, Indiana, Ohio and elsewhere in the United States.
