The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- The first families of Virginia also descend from European colonists, specifically the British colonists who primarily settled at Jamestown, Williamsburg, the Northern Neck and along the James River and other navigable waters in Virginia during the 17th century.
- These elite families generally married within their social class for many generations and, as a result, most surnames of First Families date back to the US colonial period.
- The American Revolution cut many of the FFV's ties with Great Britain, despite this, some of the First Family members of Virginia were well known American loyalists to Great Britain, whereas others were American patriots who supported and often took leading roles in the Revolution.
