The first set of records from the Virginia Revolutionary Conventions, 1774-1776, collection are now available on the Library of Virginia’s Digital Collections Discovery site. The collection contains the records of five state conventions that met prior to the creation of a new state government in 1776.



Before scanning, these records were conserved to remove damaging cellulose acetate lamination that was causing the documents to degrade. Additional documents are currently being conserved and will be added to the digital collection.
