Look ups are great and they've solved many a puzzle for me. The people who do these look ups are the greatest, in my humble opinion. In fact, someone looked up an Ohio item for me recently and solved a long time mystery. The only sad thing, as concerns the Frederick county list, is that there's a huge flurry of Fauquier county look ups, with tons of names, BUT the people who subscribe to the Fauquier county list-serve don't have any idea this is going on (as far as one can tell). Lots of folks with Fauquier county ancesters (I have many Fauquier ancestors) are missing out on the possible connection to people who might be researching the same name. I guess the solution would be to subscribe to all neighboring county lists. But I think my little ole computer would be overwhelmed. There is a 'zone' where Frederick and Fauquier can have a lot in common. For one thing, there are the Allason business ledgers at the Library of Virginia, on microfilm (probably available on ILL). These date from the 1770's and have both Frederick and Fauquier county people. The entries say, e.g. Evan Griffith, near the Bull Run mountains. In short, I love look ups and the look up people. I just hope I haven't missed any Loudoun county look ups that have been posted on the Fairfax county list. (Perhaps someone offering to look ups could also post a message to the pertinent county? Maybe this is already being done, I don't know). Tom Bishop
