Jefferson Lab’s Archives and Record Specialist Melissa Erlandson looks over the archives at the Newsome House Museum & Cultural Center in Newport News, Va. Jefferson Lab gifted approximately 44 archival boxes to the Newsome House on Friday, Dec. 16, 2022. (Photo by Aileen Devlin | Jefferson Lab)
The restored Victorian landmark is a historic fixture in the city, serving not only as a museum to prominent African-American attorney J. Thomas Newsome and his wife Mary Winfield Newsome’s accomplishments, but as a venue for exhibitions, special events, and community functions. It was the first structure owned by an African-American to receive a National Historic Preservation Award.
