How did Richmond Virginia get its name?

The city was named "Richmond" after the English town of Richmond near London, because the view of the James River was strikingly similar to the view of the River Thames from Richmond Hill in England.

The name derives from Old English riche ("rich") + mont ("hill").

Are there agencies that help convicted felons in Virginia find work?

Actually as long as the felon is applying for a job that is not related to the crime that he/she is guilty of then there are laws to protect him or her from being discriminated against. There are a few states with these protective laws and Wisconsin happens to be one of them. It's called the Wisconsin Fair Employment Act. The law states that any person applying for a position has to be given equal chance unless the employer can prove in a court of law that the said job is related to the crime he/she was punished for. And if the employer does the applicant just has to go to this organization called the Department of workforce Development and tell them his/her case and they will decide if action is warranted. There are several cases where this has helped a felon gain employment.

Is it legal to own a pet wallaby in Virginia?

No. Regardless of local laws in the US, it is actually illegal to own a wallaby anywhere. Many people do not realise this.

The Australian government has only permitted the export of kangaroos and wallabies overseas for non-commercial purposes. This means that smaller, private zoos have been permitted to have them. Unfortunately, this has resulted in numerous kangaroos and wallabies escaping from their enclosures (due to mismanagement and lack of understanding of the animals' needs), causing the development of feral populations overseas.

Despite permitting the export of these animals, this still does not mean that kangaroos or wallabies may be kept as pets. Anyone who sells kangaroos or wallabies overseas is, in effect,flouting Australian law by exploiting them for commercial purposes.
