On May 10, 1851, according to the minutes of the Grand Chapter, “A letter was received from Mr. Spence [probably John Spence (Jefferson 1850)] enclosing a petition for a charter signed by Messrs. W. B. Hamilton, O. Atkinson, H. B. Stephenson, C. G. Gassani, W. L. Davis, students of the University of Virginia, Charlottesville, Va. On motion, the petition was granted.”
For reasons unclear, the actual establishment of the chapter didn’t occur till January of 1859.
