Subject: [VA-SOUTHSIDE-L] Need Help Researching a Book
Hello, fellow Va southsiders. I need help from someone who lives
near Petersburg or Richmond.
I have learned that there is a book titled "Births from the Bristol
Parish Register of Henrico, Prince George, and Dinwiddie Counties,
Virginia 1720 -1798" by Churchill Gibson Chanmberlayne, which is a
research book found in the Virginia State Library and the Petersburg
library. It is not for checking out, and cannot be accessed by
interlibrary loand. I need a look-up in it. I am noit presently able to
visit there myself.
My ancestor, John Henry Mitchell was born in Petersburg, either in
1745 or 1750. (I have found both dates in national databases.) I do not
know (but want to find out) who his mother and farther were, and whom he
married. They had one son that I know of -- Thomas Hardaway Mitchell,
born in 1792 in Dinwiddie Co, VA. John Henry moved to Oglethorpe Co., GA
somtime near 1800, and died there in 1806 Thomas Hardaway married
Ruth(ie) Tillery in Oglethorpe Co. in 1814, and they moved on to Walton
Co., GA. I also want to find who John Henry's ancestors were, and if
there were other offspring of John Henry and his wife.
If anyone would be kind enough to help me by checking in this
reference book, I would be pleased, and would pay expenses for the trip.
I would also be willing to pay a resonable stipend. Help would be most
appreciated. Bill Mitchell
