    USA - Virginia Land Company -1891-  10 common shs    -RARE-
    Early Suburban Development of Ghent (1890-1898) in Norfolk
    In 1890, the Norfolk Company, a newly established land company, purchased Ghent as a
    speculative venture for 4,416. The Norfolk Company was chartered on May 2 1, 1890, for the
    purpose of buying, selling, improving, and developing real estate in Norfolk, with Theodore H.
    Price, Alfred P. Thom, and John H. Dingee as its officers. The company was a sub-corporation
    of Blake, Boissevain and Company, a merger of Dutch, New York and London interests. While
    Blake, Boissevain and Company was primarily involved in the financing of railroads in America;
    it formed three subsidiary land companies to develop land and industrial sub-corporations. One of these subsidiaries, the
    Virginia Land Company
    , had as its major objective the development of lands throughout Virginia. The Norfolk Company, the Ghent-Norfolk Company, and the Portsmouth Company were all local subsidiaries of the
    Virginia Land Company
    .
