Virginia Families of Louisa, Hanover, and Monroe Counties


Book Description

"The author?s goal in Virginia [and WV] Families of Louisa, Hanover, and Monroe Counties was to document the ancestry of her husband, Charles Philip Blankenship. In doing so, she not only uncovered the allied families named in the subtitle of the work, but also traced his family?s migration patterns from South Carolina to Monroe County, West Virginia; from Pennsylvania to Botetourt County, Virginia; from New Kent County, Virginia to Louisa and Hanover Counties, Virginia; and from Henrico County to Prince Edward County in Virginia. Containing pedigree charts, instructions on the drawing of land plats from deeds, individual chapters on each allied family, and comprehensive place and name indexes, this is an outstanding regional history."--Genealogical.com.







Genealogies of West Virginia Families

Roane County, West Virginia Families


Book Description

Bishop's "History of Roane County" is the standard work on its subject, but its chief appeal to the genealogist can be found in the hundreds of genealogical and historical essays of pioneer families of Roane County that comprise the second half of the work. Those essays, which, in most cases, are based upon interviews conducted by the author with a surviving family member, generally go back to the early nineteenth century and pertain to migrants from Virginia and the middle states possessing British, Irish, or Scotch-Irish stock.
