I do not have access to specific archives of the Virgin Islands Avis newspaper. I recommend checking with the newspaper's archives or contacting the newspaper directly for information on Vaughn Arthurton's presence in their publication in 1987.

Le Croix means The Cross. It generally refers to the Holy Cross.

Christopher Columbus discovered the Virgin Islands for Europeans in 1493.

The Islands were bought by the US in 1917. They had been a profitable colony until the mid 19th century, but became a liability after the abolition of slavery and changing sailing routes in the region. Denmark was thus eager to sell and during WWI USA finally wanted to buy to eliminate the risk of Germany taken them over and using them as a submarine base. The price was $ 25 million, and the deal had to pass a public vote in Denmark.

It may be interesting to note that even though Denmark was late in freeing the slaves (decided in 1847 to take effect after 12 years, but implemented in 1848 due to a slave rebellion in the West Indies/Virgin Isl.), she was actually the first colonial power to ban the Slave trade. A law was passed in 1792 to have effect in 1802, i.e. before the famous Wilberforce had success with a similar law for the British Empire.

No, while the two island groups are right next to each other, the United States controls the western islands of St. Thomas, St. John and St. Croix. The British Virgin Islands are a part of the British Commonwealth and they include the major islands of Tortola, Virgin Gorda, Jost Van Dyke, and Anegada.

Presidential and vice presidential elections are both held at the same time, every four years. Since 1792, they are held the Tuesday between November 2 to November 8.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------They bought it from the Dutch for 25,000,000. However, the United States only wanted to buy St. Croix for it's oil. They did not want to buy St. Thomas or St. John, but the Dutch said they had to buy all three of the islands. So,that increased the cost of the United States Virgin Islands.

I think st. Thomas has stick rules and government .

St. Thomas is part of the U.S. Virgin Islands, which is a U.S. territory. It is part of the United States, but not a state.

There are two: the Cyril E. King Airport on St. Thomas (code: STT) and the Henry Rohlsen Airport on St. Croix (code: STX).

Charlotte Amalie was the name of the consort of Christian V of Denmark, the ruling monarch of Denmark-Norway when the islands were claimed by the country. In 1754 the capital was moved to Christiansted, named for Christian V himself, however moved back again in 1871.

If you're looking for the answers to a medical questionnaire, you'll probably get a more accurate diagnosis if you actually answer them yourself. If you're just nosy, it's none of your business.

There are a couple of states that start with the letter s. These include Sacramento, capital of California; Springfield, Illinois; Santa Fe, New Mexico; Saint Paul, Minnesota; Salem, Oregon; and Salt Lake City, Utah.

the Caribbean sea surrounds the U.S. virgin islands the

The U.S. Virgin Islands (USVI) are neither north or south of the British Virgin Islands (BVI). They are west of the BVI. There is overlap in terms of latitude, however, with most of the USVI island of St. John lying north of the BVI island of Norman Island.

The size of the U.S. Virgin Islands is 133.73 square miles. That equals 346.36 square kilometers.

It is the same as it is in the states. We are a US Territory and we use the USPS with the same rates for letter/postcard. Or Zone 7 for Priority Mail.
