One of the guidelines that I feel is necessary for this List,  for the other 7  Lists for which I am the administrator and for the 14 Message Boards for which I am the administrator, is that prices will not be allowed. I have expressed to the Heritage Book Committee that they are welcome to post anything about the book on the List except pricing and I will defend to the end their right to post these messages This goes for any genealogy or history related book or material that would be helpful to our researchers. Barbara Keys is the Web Mistress for a superb web site for the Heritage Book and everyone interested should see it. http//www.myvirginiaheritage.com/heritage_books/patrick_county2.htm This is also posted as a Tagline at the bottom of every third message sent to the List I hope this helps to explain the situation.  If you need any further explanation please e-mail me privately at [email protected] Barbara Stanley Patrick County, Virginia Mailing List Administrator
