I have posted an article on my website "Early Virginia Meachams": http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~wmeacham/ entitled "A Chronicle of Meachams in Caroline County." This is a compilation of all references to Meachams that I could discover in early Caroline County. Other surnames mentioned often in association with Meacham are Crutchfield, Mason, Isbell, and West. If anyone knows of any other 18th century reference to a Meacham/Mitcham/Mecham etc. please let me know. William Meacham, Centre of Asian Studies, University of Hong Kong.
