I posted earlier and got fine suggestions from many people. I have another question. Would I find the Bastards' Book, Land deeds and taxes, an 1850 map of Virginia, the 1850 Slave Schedule Index, bibles of the TERRY family (in question), all for King William County, VA at the National Archives in Washington, DC? Or will I still have to visit the Library of Virginia for any of this information?
