PRE PUBLICATION ANNOUNCEMENT
Lands and Lesser Gentry of Eastern Westmoreland County, Virginia 1650-1840s
is a new, limited edition book dealing with 32 primary families, including
the CARR family and many others, describing them, their era and where they
lived within a 37 square mile area.
This is a serious work drawn from over 2100 sources, the vast majority of
which are primary. The 8 ½ x 11 inch paperback has 284 pages of prose and
graphics as well as 47 pages of index and endnotes. There are 28 maps
drawn from documents showing, as precisely as possible, the land holdings
of the families.
While this work goes far beyond genealogy, it contains 46 pages of family
trees with primary sources for the information, where available. Your
family is included. In some instances the contents vary significantly from
common, undocumented internet material.
The anticipated price is $28.50 plus shipping. If you are interested,
please email me. This way I can get a better idea of how many books should
be printed. There is no obligation to purchase, and your reply will be
shared with no one. A reply within ten days would be appreciated.
