South Norfolk Genealogy...

      Yesterday I started this YahooGroup in the hopes of advancing genealogy 
      concerning the South Norfolk area of Chesapeake Virginia. Genealogy is a 
      hobby that I have pursued since 2005 and have found fascinating. My husband was 
      born and raised in South Norfolk which was a county at the time of his birth. In 
      1963 South Norfolk and Portlock County merged with other parts to become 
      the city of Chesapeake. This past year I have started to work on my husband's 
      ancestry and found very little information concerning genealogy in South Norfolk, 
      hence the purpose of this group. 

      Some of the surnames I've been researching are Forehand, Scott, Rodgers, 
      Ford, Harper, Jordan and Daniel. I have lived in South Norfolk for over 25 years 
      and it is a neighborhood rich in history, parts of this area are designated historic 
      and the neighborhood is experiencing a huge push towards revitalization.

      Http://HistoricSouthNorfolk.com offers a wealth of current and historic perspective 
      about this area. It also contains articles written by local historian/author Raymond L. 
      Harper. I would be more than happy to assist with informational look ups as time allows. 
      Interested researchers please join using the link below to share and gain information 
      concerning South Norfolk family history as this is the only Yahoo Group that I know 
      of that will do so. It is a work in progress with any help being greatly appreciated.

      Kind Regards,
      Vicki Ford
