Phyllis, I can tell that you are covered up in requests but when you get caught up, could you please tell me what is in the book about the Giles County McPhersons. Thank you so much for your willingness to help all of us out here in cyberland.

Phyllis, Would it be too much to ask what these books have on my Eli----Henry----and William Caldwell? Thanks in advance.

Phyllis, If not too much to ask, would you look up anything on the family of AnnaBelle Hodge b. april 23, 1873 in the history book. I have not been able to find any family for her and know she was from Giles. She married my g-father, David C. Altizer c. 1889. Thank you. Nancy in FL

Does anyone know if Bastardy Bonds were kept in Giles County in the 1820s for illegitimate children? If so, where could they be found?

Kathy believe it or not I forgot all about last night until this afternoon. I was in treehouse last night and had a bingo on Huffman & Lake though. Talk to you later Steve

Hi Steve, Just wondering how you are doing. Hope you missed last night for a good reason and not because of health reasons. Kathy

Carole, Maybe an inquiry to the courthouse would be the best source for an answer to your question concerning Bastardy Bonds. Here is the address: Giles Co., Courthouse 501 Wenonah Ave. Pearisburg, Va. 24134 Hope this helps. Phyllis

Wanda, I have both Vol. 1 & 2 of the Giles Co., History Book. Be happy to do look-ups on your Taylors. Do you have any first names? Phyllis

I don't have the book, but was just wondering what Taylor's you are looking for in Giles Co. Thanks Steve Taylor

Does anyone have volume 2 of Giles County history/families and would anyone be willing to do lookups in it? I need someone to lookup Taylors in it. I would be willing to pay for copies. Wanda L. Thacker [email protected]

Rootsource.com has added Alleghany County to its collection of transcribed and Soundex coded 1850 Censuses. This unique collection of contiguous counties is invaluable to researchers concentrating on southwest Virginia, with no time-consuming downloads you can query the databases based either on a specific surname or use a Soundex search to compensate for the vagaries of mid-19th century spelling. Also in the collection are the 1850 Censuses from: Carroll County, Virginia Floyd County, Virginia Giles County, Virginia Mercer County, West Virginia Monroe County, West Virginia Patrick County, Virginia Pulaski County, Virginia Raleigh County, West Virginia Tazewell County, Virginia Wyoming County, West Virginia Because of the redrawing of county boundaries after 1850 these data include most of present day: Bland County, Virginia Buchanan County, Virginia Craig County, Virginia McDowell County, West Virginia and Summers County, West Virginia. Each census transcription includes all members of the household, all information on the census schedule and any marginal notes made by the census taker. Access is available by subscription, check http://www.rootsource.com/inventory.htm for a complete listing of all surnames in the county. Available at no charge is the 1704 Quit Rent covering most of Virginia's Northern Neck. It is also in a searchable and soundex indexed format. Visit at http://www.rootsource.com/quit_rents.htm If you have ancestors who served in the Continental Army check http://www.rootsource.com/continental.htm for the only site that cross references army regiments to recruiting territories in addition to providing a brief regimental history.
