Hi List, Copied from another list. I checked for some preliminary research data. One thing led to another ..... sigh.... There are enough Virginia / West Virginia PIG(G)OTTs to keep a researcher busy for months !! If any list member needs any additional information on this, or the other VA/WV lines, just let me know. There are WWI draft registrations, and possibly some Civil War records.
