Thanks, Jon for the suggestions. The first problem I have had in checking
anybody's site, most specifically the Library of Virginia, is that all they
have are titles and indexes. I really need to flip through the images and
see what they look like.
The second follows from the first. I live about as far northwest in
Virginia as one can go without falling across the line into Jefferson
County, WV. i.e. getting to Richmond is nearly 3 hours and Tidewater
another couple. It is a good life out here in the boonies, but the cost is
being remote. Why, only in the last 3 months have we been able to get a
decent high-speed non-satellite internet connection!!!
Thanks again.
Randy
