Virginia Elections and State Elected Officials website hosted by University of Virginia is superb, but I do not find an active link.   See it mentioned here http://www2.lib.virginia.edu/geostat/

Subject: [VA-HIST] Researching 19th century General Assembly members

Dear Group,

I'm writing to see if anyone has any good techniques for researching former General Assembly members (other than poring through Acts of Assembly one-by-one). The web site for the Virginia House of Delegates has a good 20th century listing, but nothing on the 19th century.

I am seeking information on Maj. James Woods of Nelson County, who died in 1832. His obituary said that he was a former member of the General Assembly, but I don't yet know what years he served.

Thanks in advance,

Scott Smith
Lynchburg, VA
