The county records I need aren't land grants, but are land transactions between individuals..... for the timeframe of 1839 to 1874. Since I'll be needing 19 of them, I was a little nervous about the cost. I wish my ancestors had shown up earlier, but my GrGrandfather William Chapman didn't migrate down to Washington County from the northern panhandle of WV until 1839. Pat Pulasky
