> I realize the question re. Dandridge's plantation had historical
> significance,  but still, such a quick response to a question of locale
> inspires me to ask:  Does anyone know where in Rockbridge County the
> Gilmore plantation Sidney/Sydney Vale was located?  It was owned by the
> Gilmore family until ca 1909.  From old family papers I know only that it
> was on the James about 4 miles south of the Natural Bridge.
>
>  Any ideas? clues?  Is there a way to trace locartion of property without
> a legal description?
