Book Description

Excerpt from The Ancestry of William Clopton of York County, Virginia: With Records of Some of His Descendants, to Which Are Added Royal Lines; Magna Carta Sureties; Charters; Wills; Deeds, Etc Compiling this book has been a slow, painstaking process extending over a period of many years. It has involved tracing casual records to their sources, and proving their authenticity by documentary evidence, thus clearing fact from tradition. Interwoven in the drab of the fabric various accounts from the romantic past have appeared, thus adding to the cold facts of vital records, interesting threads of color.
