Did this area of Washington and Westmoreland Counties at one time belong to VA? If so, will someone please guide me as to where those VA records may be found and searched online? I have tried google a few times but realize I don't have knowledge sufficient to conduct such queries.

Co. and thereafter. By going to each separately you may find more pertinent history of the evolution of each twp. that you might be looking for. If not, then google it by putting in: < "Allegheny County" + PA + history > and search for more information on the specific ones that you are looking for. nacs --- Donny Jones <harjodon@yahoo.com> wrote: > Did this area of Washington and Westmoreland > Counties at one time belong to VA? > If so, will someone please guide me as to where > those VA records may be found and searched online?
