    1. Re: [VAROCKIN] Whitesel's Church
    2. Whitesel's Church closed in the 1960's, joined with the Pleasant Valley EUB church to form the St. James EUB Church--now St. James United Methodist Church located in Pleasant Valley. St. James opened it's doors for it's first service on December 16, 1962. I attend St. James and am on the Historical Committee for our church. The EUB and Methodist churches all became United Methodist churches in 1968. I hope this helps. Michele Van Pelt **************Get fantasy football with free live scoring.

    1. [VAROCKIN] c. g. e. p. in early land records
    2. Michael Sellers
    3. Ok, I know this is a strange question, but I have yet to find an answer. In dozens of early land records in Augusta County there is a notation at the end of the record itself that reads "c. g. e. p.", and I have no idea what it means. The land records are found in "Chalkley's Chronicles" and because of the frequency of the c. g. e. p. appearances I'm sure they are not Chalkley's own notations. Some examples of the notation: "1750-51, Febrary 28th--Henry Seller, 100 acres joining land he bought of Lewis, c. g. e. p." "1748-49, March 10th--William Curry, 200, near John Young, Thos. Waterson, Naked Creek (c. g. e. p.)" "1751, April 1st--Adam Dickison, 200, on Mill Creek of Potomac, near Walnut Bottom, entered by Jno. Patton; a place called Nicolin's Bottom, 16th June, 1752, six rights; 200, between Walnut Bottom and Buffilo (Buffalo) Meadow (c. g. e. p.)" I have no idea what the "c. g. e. p." means, indicates, or stands for. Anyone have an idea? Michael Sellers
