I recently went on line looking for information about researching people in the northern/western part of the state before the current counties were founded. Thanks to those who helped me out. NOW, I have a blessed day off coming up and am trying to figure out which way to go for research ... do I head for Orange County records (looking up early residents of what is now Frederick County) OR do I head straight for Richmond and the big guns? Will Richmond had early documentation of deeds, etc??? Thanks for anyone's help!
