I have copies of several pages of "Frederick County, Virginia Marriages - 1771-1825. Compiled and edited by Eliza Timberlake Davis - 1941, Facsimile - 1973. It is in the RELIC collection of the Prince William Va. County Library. Entries are as follows: Edmundson, Archibald and Nancy Wrenn, Oct. 29, 1789. A.B. Each entry has two or three letters which I now believe to be the initials of the person who performed the marriage, in this case Aleander Balmain. There are hundreds of entries and on the three pages I have, many AB's, CS's and LC's. Can someone tell me exactly what I have to do to access the archives of this list? I just joined 9/28 and would like to be able to see what's in there. Thanks. Pat White (EDMONDSON, HUFF, VENABLE, WRENN)
