The only map I've seen that shows the race track location is a Civil War vintage map I found on Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:ATLAS_OR_PENINSULA_CAMPAIGN_MAP_1.jpg Henrico County chancery case 1886-004 will probably show who bought the land from James C. Talley in 1886. From there I would go to the deed book indexes, deed books, and plat books on microfilm at the Library of Virginia: http://www.lva.virginia.gov/public/local/results_all.asp?CountyID=VA125 ______________________________________ To subscribe, change options, or unsubscribe please see the instructions at http://listlva.lib.va.us/archives/va-hist.html This list is made possible by a grant from the U.S. Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS).
