History tolls: A piece of history sits in front of Thirty-first Street Baptist Church in the East End. It’s the original bell from the church tower that was placed between 1915 and 1917, according to accounts from the church website. When the church was destroyed by fire in November 1966, a new building was completed by May 1969. The original bell was placed on the church grounds in 1987. (Sandra Sellars/Richmond Free Press)

Courthouse renaming: The courthouse in Charles City County has a new name. On Feb. 17, it was renamed the Iona Whitehead Adkins Courthouse in honor of the county’s late circuit court clerk. In 1967, Mrs. Adkins, shown in a photo held by her granddaughter Kaci Easley, was the first African-American elected to a court of record in the United States since Reconstruction. Mrs. Adkins served as the court clerk for 21 years until her retirement in 1988. She also was active with the local NAACP branch, the Charles City Civic League and St. John Baptist Church in Charles City until her death in October 2004. An array of elected officials attended the ceremony, including former Gov. Terry McAuliffe and Congressman Robert C. “Bobby” Scott. A plaque with Mrs. Adkins’ photo hangs in the courthouse foyer.
