      I am going to attempt to help Lloyd out here just a bit because I agree research is just that. You take what you can find and investigate to the farthest extent possible.

      Now it is hard to find definate things for people so far back but I do have a couple of things that I took from GenWeb that may help Steve with his sources. Here they are:
      William and Mary College Quarterly Historical Magazine, Vol.
      21, No. 3 (Jan.,
      1913) Pages 142-163
      William and Mary College
      Quarterly Historical Magazine
      Vol. XXI. January, 1913. No. 3.

      RECORDS OF HANOVER COUNTY.
      (Continued from Vol. XXI, No. 1, page 63).


      [Mar. 15, 1788. --- Examination of Rachel, wife of James Byers, &c.]

      [Feb. 8, 1790. --- James Byars & Rachel, his wife, to Pleasant Terrill Mill on Little River.]

      This was a grist mill I have some other documentation on it somewhere in all these papers but I will have to find it. This is not much but it is something to document. I hope that this helps.

      And for the record I believe that the proper way to ask for documentation would be to simply say "Hey that sounds like good info would you happen to have some documentation to go along with it."

      I like to make copies of things like wills, deeds, etc myself to have. That way it doesn't sound quite so offensive.

      Hi Lloyd, it's been a while, I still talk to Sue though.

      Sincerely,

      Laurie [6]
