Mecklenburg Co VA courthouse didn't burn.... now, my ancestor, Phillip Mealer, who was to take the record books to Bedford Co VA for save keeping during the Revolution may have dropped one or two out of the wagon on his way or they never were returned....but to my knowledge they didn't burn. Most of the burned VA counties are in the Northern Neck area of the state. There is a little spot in the road called "Wyliesburg" which is in the next county near the Mecklenburg line. You might want to check Charlotte Co. VA for the Wiles family.
