Subject: [VA-ROOTS] New Book: Virginia's Lost Wills: An Index

The subject new book is now available and is a result of collecting for over
a decade of references to "lost" wills.   For the study a lost record was
considered in two ways: first, as an item from a location where court
records have been destroyed, and second for records that are found in
unexpected places-oftentimes far from their point of origin.  Also included
are references to abstracts or transcripts of wills found in periodicals.
Numerous sources were consulted as detailed on four pages of introductory
notes.  Many will references are from chancery suits found in the Library of
Virginia's chancery records project and might be also found online at the
Library's website.   240 pp., paper, perfect-bound, alphabetical, $35.00
postpaid.  Copies may be ordered from the compiler at the address below.
Libraries may invoice.
