> I am looking for an image of John Dawson, a fairly prominent
> Anti-Federalist in Virginia.  He served in the Virginia House of Delegates
> (representing Spotsylvania County), in the Continental Congress, and in
> the
> U.S. House of Representatives from 1797-1814.  The U.S. House Web site
> does
> not have a portrait of him.  Neither does the Library of Congress Web

> the Virginia Historical Society, or the Library of Virginia.
>
> Thank you for your help with this.
