C. Rind's first issue was August 26, 1773; her last, September 22, 1774 (d. September 25, 1774). She printed Thomas Jefferson;s _A Summary View of the Rights of British America_ (1774). 

There's a chapter on Clementina Rind in the following dissertation:

Martha Joanne King. "Making an impression : women printers in the southern colonies in the revolutionary era." Dissertation, College of William and Mary, 1992. 

An in-house Colonial Williamsburg Foundation research report is available at the Rockefeller Library in Williamsburg:
Jane D. Carson, "Clementina Rind."

A colleague recently came across a woman named Clementine Rind (hopefully I have the spelling right), who briefly published one of the Virginia Gazettes in Williamsburg and was an official printer for the government. My colleague wondered if there are good sources of information on Rind, especially any manuscript collections, so I turn to the experts in colonial Virginia history for guidance!

Thanks in advance,
Michelle Krowl
