HI, Cecil Odell's book cost $49.00 plus shipping Do you think that your John Mitchell is the merchant from Fredericksberg, Spotsylvania Co. VA? He is briefly mentioned in this book as buying land from William Glover. BTW, I have some Tates in Old Frederick Co., VA My gggggrandfather's sister was Mary McCormick Tate, wife of Magnus Tate of Charles Town, WVA. WVA was once a part of the present state of VA. My gggggrandfather was Andrew McCormick Sr., who came to Davidson Co. TN from VA. Best wishes, Ann
