thanks Paul may I assume that you did not find this and other similar documents in the Library of Virginia -- rather through another means? what are planning to do with your collection? Phebe Morgan Sarasota, FL

Hi, Phebe. The Library of Virginia (and all other states' archives) has thousands of such documents, there for the viewing of anybody. Too bad so few people can't give up the pay-for-genealogy websites long enough to search out such wonderful mementos. I bought almost all of mine at this or that antique shop or flea market; I always ask if such businesses have any "old paper", and never pay more than $15.00-20.00. On special occasions - Xmas, etc. - I have given my adult kids many, and will leave them the rest when I pass. Here is another: http://webpages.charter.net/pdd50/SHERWOODRIDEmarked.jpg
