Bari,

Thank you for sending links to your new materials so regularly.  I'm the
director of the Louisa County Historical Society and just took a bit of
time this morning to look in the Hanover lost records for some of the
Louisa families that elude us.

Grateful for the Library's work.

Elaine Taylor
