 Early History of Randolph County
Randolph County, the state's largest county, was created by an act of the Virginia General Assembly in October 1786 from Harrison County.
A graduate of William and Mary College, he studied the law and, in 1776, was appointed Attorney-General of the Commonwealth of Virginia.
The act creating Randolph County provided that the first meeting of the county court was to take place at Benjamin Wilson's home in Tygart's Valley, about three miles south of present-day Beverly.

 Jennings Randolph Dies at 96
In the history of American politics, Senator Randolph may be remembered best for serving the people of West Virginia as a member of the House of Representatives from 1933 to 1947 and later as a Senator from 1958 until his retirement at the end of 1984.
When he did retire, Senator Randolph was the only member of Congress still in office after serving during President Roosevelt's first 100 days.
A measure of our respect for him is shown in the fact that Jennings Randolph as a private citizen was named as the second recipient of the Federation's Newel Perry award, which was established in the 1950's.

 Randolph Churchill: Maladies et Mort - The Churchill Centre
Buzzard's reference to "general paralysis" in Randolph's case is not diagnostic of syphilis, although it suggests this was his eventual conclusion.
Lord Rosebery described Lord Randolph in comparable terms: "His wit, his sarcasm, his piercing personalities, his elaborate irony, and his effective delivery, gave astonishing popularity to his speeches.
Indeed, the only medications Lord Randolph received that can be documented were for pain (laudanum) and heart failure (belladonna and digitalis).

Now back to the text:] As Special Counsel to the United States Senate Labor and Public Welfare Committee and assistant to Senator Jennings Randolph of West Virginia, the father of the Randolph-Sheppard Act and ardent patron of the blind vending facility program, it was I who wrote the Randolph-Sheppard Act Amendments of 1974, singlehandedly.
Following extensive discussion by the members of the Randolph- Sheppard Vendors of America at the 1997 ACB/RSVA conference in Houston, Warren Toyama arranged a meeting with his longtime friend, Senator Daniel Inouye, for himself, Filo Tu, another Hawaii vendor, and me. This took place in August, 1997.
