The 1789 tax lists are wonderful indeed! A little slow to load with a dial-up modem because each page is no doubt a large jpeg file but worth the wait. These lists and a number of other documents pursuant to Pittsylvania County & southside VA can also be viewed at Gayle Austin's RootsWeb site - definitely worth checking out if you haven't been there before: http://www.rootsweb.com/~vapittsy/ As to the identity of some of the Williams folks on those tax lists (list B) - well, they are my 3rd great grandfather (James Mastin Williams) and several of his brothers. They were sons of William & Lucy Terry Williams of Pittsylvania County VA, both deceased by 1788: Page 48.jpg #9 James Mastin Williams and Thomas Terry Williams #10 Lewis Williams #15 David C. Williams Page 47.jpg, #1 John Williams - this is likely also another of the sons of William & Lucy Terry Williams. Page 50.jpg, above #28 is Joseph Terry Williams. This is the brother who migrated to Wilson & Sumner Counties, Tennessee by 1798 and stayed there for nearly 20 years before finally settling in Jackson Co. Illinois according to his Rev. War pension application. Happy Searching - and Happy Holidays to All! ~Jane
