Alexandria At War With ( Madeline Feierstein ) Episode Two: Crime in an Occupied City
Episode Two: Crime in an Occupied City
In this episode of Alexandria at War, produced by American Civil War & UK History podcast, host Daz is joined by historian Madeline Feierstein of Rooted in Place to examine crime in Alexandria, Virginia, during the Union Army’s occupation of the city.
Following Union occupation, Alexandria came under military rule, with a Union governor and provost marshals enforcing order in place of civilian courts. Crime levels fluctuated as war, economic disruption, and the presence of Union troops strained the city. The arrival of large numbers of formerly enslaved people seeking refuge added further pressure on housing and resources and was often, unfairly, linked to crime. To maintain control, Union authorities imposed new regulations such as curfews, travel passes, and loyalty oaths, reshaping daily life in occupied Alexandria.
