William Richardson Davie : ウィキペディア英語版 | William Richardson Davie
William Richardson Davie (June 20, 1756 – November 29, 1820) was a military officer and the tenth Governor of North Carolina from 1798 to 1799, as well as one of the most important men involved in the founding of the University of North Carolina. He was a member of the Federalist Party and is a "Founding Father of the United States." ==Early life== Davie was born in England, but immigrated to the American colonies in 1763, when his father, Archibald Davie, brought him to the Waxhaw region near Lancaster, South Carolina (later thought to be where Andrew Jackson was born). He was named for his maternal uncle, William Richardson, a prominent Presbyterian minister in South Carolina, although not adopted by him. However, when Richardson died, Davie inherited 150 acres of his land as well as a large library. As an adolescent, Davie studied at Queen's Museum, later Liberty Hall, in Charlotte, then matriculated to the College of New Jersey (now Princeton University), from which he graduated with honors in 1776.
