Dear Herman, Beej, and Cousins on the List:             First, thanks for your information, Beej on the new 1930 Census release.  It is exciting and I just wish I was near someplace where I could check it out.           Herman, I wish I could sit and read some of those books you have.  I checked out Warfield's History of AA county once, and like you, found it hard going.  But maybe now that I have a little more sense of the background, I would find it easier.  I have just purchased Barnes' "Colonial Families of AA Co"; Wright's "AA Co Church Records of the 17th & 18th Centuries," and Russell's "First Families of AA Co, 1649-1658."  I will be reviewing them with the William Pennington online study that I'm preparing.  These can be purchased through Backcountry Crossroads once I get the pages up.  Each is EXCELLENT!  I hadn't studied AA county before, even though I have lived there.   &! nbsp;      The Chews are an interesting family too.  Samuel, son of John and Sarah of York Parish, VA and brother of Joseph of AA and Cecil, is profiled in Russell's book.  An ardent Quaker, of course.         I don't think you need to worry about your fading memory! Love, Your Cousin, Carolyn      ------------------------------------------------
