I cheat, I only search one category and search only by last name (mine are Michie and Farrish fairly unusual) and that is Archives and Manuscripts, it is where the family bibles are as well as some of the collected BMD from the papers. http://ajax.lva.lib.va.us/F/?func=file&file_name=find-b-clas05&local_base=CLAS05 I found an ancestral uncle being murdered on his way back home, with his slaves being accused - in his will he was freeing them. I never heard a thing search tho I would about the end game.
