2 Archive requests: If anyone is going to the national archives - if you wouldn't mind peeking into the pension file of James Smith of Wythe, Co Virginia (wife is Jane) who served under S. Graham I would greatly appreciate it if someone could see if there is a list of heirs or anything pertaining to "linking" information and jot them down for me. Also - Nelson Hopkins of Smyth, Co Virginia wife Polly Matthews Hopkins - a list of heirs would be nice for that one as well if one exists in his pension file. Thanks! Andy Doss

You can scan the files on your own flatbed scanner or copy on the archives, take digital pictures of the files. There are some records and items that can be copied to you disc so the archivist told me.
