Thank you! I believe this family and some neighbors moved from Shenandoah County to utherford County TN around this time. Do you think there is anywhere else I could look for the court case of lizabeth Blackwood and William Lawrence/Robert Shaw? I am new at enealogy, and I really don't know what I should be looking for. Like I entioned, I have seen this case referenced in several researchers notes, ut I have not been able to make contact with those researchers, or find the nformation. I feel confident that if it was found once, it can be found gain :).

I am planning a trip to VA in the spring, so hopefully I will nd her. f you don't mind, I have another quick question. I found a reference for lliam J. Blackwood. He was suppose to be listed in the Shenandoah County Court Minute Book (1816-1821). The date is 9 Mar 1818. When I looked on ne, I found a transcription of this book, but I could not find William ackwood listed in it. Do you know if this entire book is transcribed? hank you very much for your time. ulie ----Original Message----- om: vashenan-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:vashenan-bounces@rootsweb.com] Behalf Of Chochoruss@aol.com nt: Monday, December 06, 2010 1:02 PM : vashenan@rootsweb.com bject: Re: [VASHENAN] BLACWOOD Inquiry ulie, I believe the only way you will find anything on this is to read the ewspaper for 1806 as I could find nothing in Chancery Records or diciary Records in Shenandoah County about this.
