    3. This was sent to me by another researcher on his Tomlinson line. Would anyone know where the "Eastern District" is located and he is right in that WV did not become a state until 6/20/1863 so it would have still been VA? Sharon B. "Yesterday I looked up John Tomlinson in the Virginia 1850 CD-ROM (GRS now Brodebund) and the printout said "Eastern District" page 092 West Virginia. We all know there wasn't a W. Virginia until the Civil War. There were other names but in "Dist 24". I went to Hampshire Co., VA film # 948 (Halifax & Hampshire) but could NOT 1) find any "Eastern District" or 2)any page 092 on that film. I searched 1850 Virginia AISI Index book for Tomlinson, John in Hampshire Co., VA but found none. So bottom line is where do I find "Eastern District" page 092 and on which film??
