Well, if you consider George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, James Madison, James Monroe, Francis Marion, and a bunch of others 'important people,' there sure were. Washington, our first President, was a Virginian. Jefferson not only authored the Declaration of Independence, he was the third President & the man who acquired the Louisiana Purchase. He was also a Virginian. James Madison, another Virginian and President, authored the Bill of Rights. Monroe was President--yet another Virginian. Marion, known as The Swamp Fox, was one of the most effective field commanders in the Revolution. He was from South Carolina. The list could fill a fair-sized book.
