I’d like to suggest digitizing the records of the James River Company and anything else that pertains to the James River & Kanawha Canal as well as the records of convict hires from the State Penitentiary who worked on the canal or in the quarries in the James River between 14th Street and Belle Isle.

How might that get put into the list of things to be digitized?

Thanks,

Lyle Browning, RPA
