Abandoned Archives: Belle Isle
from The Dreadful Diaries Hosted by The Dreadful Diaries
History class is in session, gang. We take a look into the history of Belle Isle in Richmond, VA and it's now abandoned structures. Steph gets a lesson on who Captain John Smith was because apparently, that's not covered in all kindergarten classes. She's never going to live this one down. https://www.atlasobscura.com/places/belle-isle-state-park https://www.nps.gov/rich/learn/historyculture/sergeant-j-osborn-coburn.htm https://www.nps.gov/rich/learn/historyculture/prisoners-in-richmond.htm#:~:text=At%20its%20peak%2C%20there%20were,suffered%20from%20lack%20of%20shelter. https://www.belleislecraftspirits.com/story/history-belle-isle https://www.discoveramericablog.com/post/2018/12/16/belle-isle https://www.silvermansound.com
