Two series of records exist in the National Archives which might be of
interest.

Unfortunately, the records for the Virginia Continental Loan Office Records
have not been microfilmed. Although many other states have been, including
nearby Maryland. These records consist mainly of registers of loan office
certificates and liquidated debt certificates. Other types of records
include registers of interest certificates, indexes, journals, ledgers, and
accounts current.

Although a little later the Loan of 1790 consists of accounts relating to
the loan authorized by an act of August 4, 1790, for the purpose of
liquidating the entire foreign, domestic, and assumed Revolutionary War
debt. These accounts include journals, ledgers, a list of receipts, an index
to receipts, an interest dividend book, receipts for both interest and
principal, and a register of unclaimed dividends.

For Virginia there are 12 rolls at  NARA Microfilm Publication T696.
