Neither volume of three volume set, "Emigrants, Refugees and Prisoners," by Richard Warren Davis show IBS Numbers. They carry a Copyright notice and his address as P. O. Box 50182, Prove, Utah 84605. Vol. III has the Reconstructed 1750 Mennonite Census for Shenandoah Valley, Virginia. Presumably the census is of Mennonites only.
