ATTEN; MARIA & ANTHONY: THANKS for your POST. NOW I Suppose that you two have a Copy of, RETRACING OUR FAMILY LEGACY Evolution of Virginia Counties <A 12 Page Print Out. Another Handy ITEM to have is; Genealogies on the Internet. Virginia Mailing Lists A T <atpowelljr@aol.com>

Should people who make mistakes on counties be put in jail, or just fined? Since family historians range from beginning amateurs to professional, certified researchers, it's more a question of "what is going to help the person with whom you share the information." Someone may know a lot about the location and eventual disappearance of "old" Rappahannock County, but just be starting research on an ancestor from Orange County -- which once included Augusta County -- which once included much of present-day Illinois. So my answer is, the more information the better. If you know that the county changed while the location stayed the same, include it in your records. If the history is not new to the next person who reads it (or the person 50 years from now who reads it), it will be a good reminder. We all need to be reminded of things, occasionally. There was a 9th Circuit Court of Appeals opinion published in April concerning which of two liens on Indian trust land had priority. The question asked here reminded me of the story it tells: >>Peskind’s law holds: When there is uncertainty about where to file a security interest in order to perfect it, file everywhere. Peskind’s law is named after E.J. Peskind, a longstanding member of the Arizona Bar. Peskind was a student of Professor James J. White at the University of Michigan Law School in the 1960’s. When Professor White called on Peskind and asked him what steps a party should take to perfect its security interest when there is uncertainty about where to file, Peskind responded, “File everywhere.” Apparently moved by the wisdom of that answer, Professor White declared to the class that it would be forever known as “Peskind’s law.” The White & Summers hornbook defines Peskind’s law as follows: “When in doubt about your perfection take all possible steps (including . . . multiple filing) that could help.”<<

Bob, everything that you mention is true. However, I believe that stopping the perpetuation of mis-information should be the goal of every genealogist. Otherwise, why bother? Happy hunting, Marla

With so many early counties in the colonies having been split to form new counties, my question is this: How should the county of birth/death be recorded for an individual in one of these split counties? For example, Orange Co., Virginia was formed from a earlier county, then split to form Culpeper county and so on ----- so if an individual was born in Orange county but that area is now a part of Culpeper county do you show Orange co. as the birth county, or Culpeper county, or some combination designation like Orange (later Culpeper) Co., Virginia? Which is the best approach? And what if someone has given a county of birth/death that is out of the time frame of the formation of that county? I.E. a person is shown as being born in Culpeper county when his date of birth was actually before the formation of Culpeper county? Anthony CASH, DAVIS, LEDBETTER, WALTON

Anthony, I'm no expert, but what I would do is record the county exactly as to the time frame. For instance, my Samuel Bird lived on Reed Creek-- a place which changed counties 3 times over a period of 20 years. So, my Bird was born in Pittsylvania Co., married in Henry Co., and died in Franklin County--yet he never moved from Reed Creek! In addition, his marriage was recorded in TWO counties--so, I just made a notation of both records in my GEDCOM. Most people researching in Virginia DO understand how county formations can really throw us off track. But, if you see other researchers having the formation of the county appearing AFTER the event, then it was either an honest mistake, or they haven't done their "homework". Given the frequency of county changes in VA--I tend to give people the benefit of the doubt. But, it might be worth calling it to their attention. I know I'd want to know if someone else caught my mistake.
