Especially the Winn family Bible record, 1789-1859. acc. 42064, Material 13 leaves. Same pen, same handwriting for 70 years, no crossed out letters or entrees. I find it peculiar that so many wills for this family are missing. We do know what happened to the will for the Winns in Louisa County. It was willfully destroyed because former slave Peter suit for his freedom. (Check the Court records for Louisa County) Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
