Two years ago I found and printed from the Va Board of Public Works files
online at LVA's website, a nifty ca 1830s schematic drawing for a bridge
design.  Unfortunately, I have misplaced the citation and forgotten how I
found it. The URL for the image was too long and therefore abbreviated
when it printed at the bottom of the page.   I'm quite willing to retrace
the steps of my research two years ago - except that I don't know where to
start on the LVA website - HOW do I get to the Board of Public Works
finding aids for the digitized images of maps and plans?
