I thought that I sent this out last night. I hope this isn't a duplicate. If so, accept my apology. All of the Bratcher/Bradshaw deeds from Cumberland County, Virginia are now posted on my website ( www.geocities.com/~dbratcher ). I hope that this information will be of help to you. If you have any source data such as census, marriage, land, bible or military records concerning Bratcher or related variant surnames, please feel free to contribute them for sharing with others.
