These suggestions I sent to the person in Illinois who is seeking her ancestor. A good many genealogists find some information about our colonial Virginia ancestors by studying the land patents which are online at the library of Virginia website. Maybe you can use land records to find out more about your Dale family (and any other Virginia family). Note that Fauquier Co. was formed ca 1759 from Prince William Co., so you may have to search PW Co. also. I accessed the URL given at the bottom of this e-mail and noted that there are 52 entries for the surname Dale--some pertaining to folks who were neighbors of a Dale male [generally--a few females got land patents], particularly if allied with wealthy families. These land patent [abstracts] are arranged chronologically, with the latest date first. Beginning about Item 32, you will find some Dale males whose names are mentioned in Virginia land patents in earlier times. If a library near you is fortunate enough to have all eight volumes [bound books] of the series called Cavaliers and Pioneers, you may want to scour the indexes in those books. Not only are there surnames with given names, but also the index includes watercourses [creeks, runs, swamps, etd.], neighbors, paths, and lots of information to keep you occupied for decadesp--at least, in my case!!! However, except for the very first volume of C&P, there are no patents, to speak of, for Northern Neck land grants, such as Fauquier Co. There is a separate set of books by Gertrude E. Grey, Virginia Northern Neck Land Grants [four volumes, arranged chronologically]. Ask your librarian a LOT of questions: 1. What genealogical reference books do you have? (The Source, The Red Book, etc.) What books on Virginia records do you have? 2. Do you have ANY volumes of the series called Cavaliers and Pioneers? The online database of land records is helpful, but, if you tend toward books, as many of us do, then you want to get acquainted with Cavaliers and Pioneers--and any other book on Virginia ancestry which you can track down!!! 3. Does the local library have access to the online genealogical database called HeritageQuest [only libararies can subscribe, as I understand it]? If so, then ask whether you can remotely access HQ, say on your home computer? If the local library does not have HQ, ask whether a library in an adjoining county has this database. If so, then try to obtain a card [with a number, which is your password] from that *foreign* library. Some people are able to pay an annual subscription fee to that library, and then can access HQ at home!!!! There are censuses, not all indexed; books, Rev. War pension claims of about 1832, and PERSI. Read about PERSI--or communicate online with the Allen County [Indiana] Public Library which publishes PERSI 4. Ask about interlibrary loan. Although most libraries do NOT lend their genealogical books, a librarian tells me most college and University lib raries do lend their books. So ask!!! Here is the library of Virginia website for land records: Note there is a difference between Northern Neck land grants and patents for the rest of Virginia. See if you can find an explanation on the website. Rootsweb will *wrap* the URL in punctuation marks. Remove the dashes or parens before pasting into your search blank. _http://www.lva.lib.va.us/whatwehave/land/index.htm_ (http://www.lva.lib.va.us/whatwehave/land/index.htm) E.W.Wallace who loves land records, which have helped me solve many relationship problems. **************************************See AOL's top rated recipes (http://food.aol.com/top-rated-recipes?NCID=aoltop00030000000004)

I am really interested in reading the Guardian Bonds, but in the back of my mind is the question of what EXACTLY are guardian bonds? I have read them many times in my own reseearch and interpret this to mean that one or both parents have died and the "orphan" is put in the care of a designated "guardian". Who determines the appointed guardian, etc. etc.? Thanks for the time. Estelle

Simon Cornwell was the son of Peter Cornwell and Sarah Bowlin/Bowling Diana Shumate was the daughter of Daniel Shumate and Tabitha Dodson. After Peter Cornwell and Tabitha Dodson Shumate died, Daniel Shumate married Sarah Bowlin Cornwell, widow of Peter Cornwell. So Simon and Diana were step brother and sister. They were not related by blood but by the marriage of their widowed parents. Scott -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Virginia L.

The following is from my book of Abstracts of the Loudoun Co. Guardian Books: Guardians were appointed for individuals, usually minors, who had inherited money or who were orphaned. The Guardian was to monitor and control the spending of funds in providing the necessities of the individual's lifestyle while maintaining the funds principal. In the early years, Guardians were required to periodically present the Court with an accounting of income and expenditures. In later years these presentations were requested every year. Proper receipts and vouchers were required and the Guardian was usually compensated for his troubles with a small commission. Children 14 years or older were allowed to choose their Guardian, while a Guardian was court appointed for younger minor. The term orphan usually referred to a minor whose father had died. A parent was often chosen as a Guardian for a minor who had inherited moneys, etc. from another individual, often a grandparent. Children were bound out by the Overseers of the Poor when the parent could not longer provide for the child or when the child had lost both parents. The Court Order Books recorded the appointing of Guardians, the choosing of Guardians, and the binding out of children. Fauquier and Loudoun Co. also maintained Guardian Account books which recorded the accounts presented to the court by the Guardian.

I have read that a parent, particularly, a father had to obtain a guardianship and it must be renewed at intervals......according to the way I understood it. Can anyone say if so and why if it is a father. I have seen the "powers that be" removed children from a widowed mother and placed them in apprenticeships - or for the girl children, as mother's helpers in other homes????? [email protected]
