Hello
 
You sparked me to look at these records. My question is how do you read the  
print? It is so small I'm unable to read. Is there a way to make them  larger?

Dear  lists members,

I found the following listing on the Library of Virginia  website page
for the Northern Neck Grants;

Patent/Grant Year/Volume  Reel Num.

Total Pages

Grants C 1729-1731 (VOL.1 & VOL.2  p.1-227) 290 227

Grants D 1731-1732 291 684

Grants E 1736-1742  (VOL.1 & VOL.2 p.1-525) 291 525. I was searching for
a Northern Neck  Grant Corresponding to the following listing, that I
found in an old  posting  at

http://files.usgwarchives.net/va/frederick/land/landgrants/h3000000.txt
<http://files.usgwarchives.net/va/frederick/land/landgrants/h3000000.txt
>  

The posting read, "Jacob Better, 400 acres surveyed 1735, survey Nos.  6,
7."

I did not find the grant, as there seems to be a four-year  gap in the
record.

Is the gap an omission or are there no records  for Northern Neck Grants
made between 1732 and 1736?

Best  Regards,

Byron  Bowman
