Heard about this site and thought I would pass it along, as there are 13 listed for Virginia: - ---------------------------------------------------- http://barusa.tripod.com/ghostcounties/ GHOST COUNTIES Your Guide to America's Dead, Forgotten Counties We've all heard of ghost towns. Well, it isn't just towns that disappear. In almost every state, there have been counties that, for one reason or another, have been discontinued. Many became financially dissolvent; others were divided into smaller counties. Whatever the reason, these counties were home to families and communities. Once disbanded, they are generally forgotten. That's why Ghost Counties exists - to honor the memory of these forgotten dead counties. - ---------------------------------------------------- Sue Dotson [email protected]

The 1870 Grayson Co., VA census is online. You can find it at www.ls.net/~newriver/nrv.htm Good luck with your research.

Patricia, Just wanted to mention that my BEDSAUL ancestor, along with some of the HALES moved over to Washington County, TN, and there was a large gathering of FORDS connected to them through marriage there. Have you checked that county? Jean Cuevas At 02:40 PM 11/1/00 -0500, you wrote: >I am new to this list and needs some real help.
