There is additional information in this book on the Brewers, Ropps, Vances, Craigs, Barrs, Prestons., but since there are so many references for you, you should buy the book from the Historical Society of Washington, VA, P.O. Box 484,, Aabingdon, VA 2422-0484, which I think is now about $36, very much worth the money if you have lots of ancstors from Washington Co., VA in the middle of the 19th century.
