Is the pre-Civil War period for West Virginia counties within the scope
of the group? I would think so but please clarify.
Thanks.

I, personally, as a consequence of many years of research on many
aspects of Virginia's history believe that it is entirely appropriate
for us on Va-Roots to regard Virginia as including the counties that
became West Virginia up to the Civil War. Indeed, it is not possible to
understand the history of the area that is now Virginia during that time
without understanding the area that is now West Virginia during that
time.
We have always had much less discussion of West(ern) Virginia on this
list than of contemporary Virginia. There are, after all, other venues
for discussion of topics relating to West Virginia, but I think that
West(ern) Virginia subjects such as the announcement about the ready
online availability of records from that area is entirely appropriate,
even desirable.
