I think I have mentioned this elsewhere before, but Alebmarle Street is named for William Anne Keppel, second Earl of Albemarle and Governor General of the colony from 1737 to 1754. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earl_of_Albemarle
Also noteworthy- On the evening of Friday, February 11, 1887, five businessmen met in Richmond, Virginia to consider forming a paper company. Albemarle Paper Manufacturing Company was born that night, and the men soon built a factory on a parcel of land located on Tredegar Street between the James River and Kanawha Canal. There, they manufactured Kraft paper and blotting paper, and enjoyed success during the early decades of the 1900s. http://www.newmarket.com/About/Pages/OurHistory.aspx
