FYI Most newpapers were printed on rag paper up until the 1900s--it varied from place to place dependent upon the availability of { literally} rags.. Especially in large cities there were rag-pickers who drove through the streets with horse and cart and either salvaged or bought rags, worn out clothing etc.to supply the makers of newsprint. Rag paper is acid free. It is the acid in wood pulp paper which causes the rapid disintegration of currently used newsprint. I have several newpapers from the 1850s which are in great shape whereas clippings from merely a year ago are already yellowing and fragile.

Because there seems to be so much confusion over the FRY lines in Marilyn's request for help, here is what I sent her privately. date of marriage: 16 Jun 1926 in Sycolin groom: Leonard Putman, painter, 22y old, single, born Loudoun, resides Paeonian Springs, parents: Thos. & Susie Putman bride: Carlene Fry, 21y old, single, born Loudoun, resides Paeonian Springs, parents: Charlie & Susie Fry performed by: J. Raymond Wood date of marriage: 1 Apr 1902 in Lovettsville groom: Chas. L. Fry, laborer, 27y old, single, born and resides Loudoun, parents: Jno. P. & Amanda R. bride: Jane Ann Tribby, 21y old, single, born and resides Loudoun, parents: Jesse & Jane performed by: Asa Richard date of marriage: 29 Oct 1857 at Benjamin Miles' in Loudoun groom: John Peter Fry, mechanic, 24y old, single, born in Loudoun, parents: Peter & Sarah Fry bride: Amanda Miles, 21y old, single, born Loudoun, parents: Benjamin & Rachel Miles performed by: Joseph T. Eakin date of marriage: 30 Jan 1879 groom: Jesse E. Tribby, farmer, 40y old, single, born and resides Loudoun, parents: Saml. E. & Emily bride: Jane A. Adams, 30y old, single, born and resides Loudoun, parents: Peter & Lydia performed by: P. H. Miller Note: I believe the listing of Susie Fry as the mother of Carlene Fry is an error. The 1920 Loudoun Census show Caroline A. V. Fry, 11y old, as the daughter of Charles L., 46y old, and J. Annie, 36y old, with brother Addie? L., 6y old, sister Mabel R., 4 1/2 y old, and brother Charles C., 2/12 y old.

Hi Does anyone know why I am not receiving any mail from Prince William Co. ??? Also tried to subscribe again, never received a answer. Thanks Sondra

Hello, I am trying to get Ruthie Anderson's email address. I have some information she might be interested in. Regards, Gary Virts

Hello my ggrandfather was Charlie Fry born in 1875 who married Annie Tribby. They had Careline my grandmother who married Leonard Lee Putman. Thanks for the help. Marilyn Marlow

I am sorry I have no other information on Annie Tribby, since Jane A Tribby's middle name starts with an A. I thought maybe she was also known as Annie. I was hoping to find out. I got her name from the Tavenner records at the Thomas Balch and he is not always reliable. He misidentified some of my husband's ancestors. I think that he is a valuable source, however. Mimi Baker

If your great great grandfather's name was John Peter Frye, I may have some information for you. He had a son Charles L. Frye born 1875 who married Annie Tribby.. What was your grandfather's name? Mimi Baker

Do you know who Annie Tribby's parents were? Thanks.

Hey MaryAnn!! We are going to see Dons brother who lives near Clifton Forge. But, Don said that as long as we are in Virginia he would help me in Leesburg for 2-3 days!

I am reposting part of my message because part of the message was cut off. I loved the antique shops (in Waterford). They were terrific. I bought a great old chair. I love the chair-it looks exactly like a Waterford chair, but it is a valet chair. Does anyone know if the Waterford chairs were sometimes Valet chairs? Who made the Waterford chairs? Can't wait to go back for another visit! Thank you. Ruthie

This last weekend I "treked" to Waterford (from Cincinnati, Ohio) and my sister and I talked to her neighbor, who said that my sister's farm was originally owned by Thomas Hutton of Scot-Irish descent, a Quaker of Fairfax from PA. He was a "near relative of the Janneys". Then a Thompson (I think he said Edward) bought her place, then William Virts (not sure of the spelling), Uriah Bean, Mc Garevick, then Boones.
