    3. Judy and All: I checked the book "Virginia in 1760: A Reconstructed Census" coptright (c) 1996 by T.L.C. Genealogy, P.O. Box 403369 Miami, Beach, Fl 33140-1369. I think they were a little loose with the word census. The introduction page explains; Most entries look like this: (I will use the name Via) VIA David Louisa, 64:13, 64:91 William Albermarle, 64:45, 64:46 Were the elements are: Surname First name county, book number:page number In this case, VIA, David would be found in book number 64 on page 13 and 91 VIA, William same book, 64 page 45 and 46. In the references Book # 64 is Louisa County, Virginia, Deeds, Etc, Book C, 1759-1765. LVA Reel 2.65. The Vestry Book and Register of St. Peter's Parish, New Kent and James Counties, Virginia, 1706-1786. Transcribed and edited by C.G. Chamberlayne, Virginia State Library and Archives, Richmond, Va. 1989. I did send about the numbers being reels and item. My Error. Probably thinking of the LVA Reel above. May help some body locate where to look. Looks like a $35.00 Index to me Buddy PS I copied name MAUPIN. Daniel Louisa 64:46 (same book as William above) and MAUPIN, Gabriel, 17:133, 17:136, 17:171 Book 17 is York County, Virginia, Judgments & Orders #3, 1759-1763.
