Va-Hist List, In recent months, I have mapped many surveys of patents or grants to Cabells and others in present-day Buckingham, Nelson, & Amherst Counties. To view the maps, go to... ftp://owl.cc.rochester.edu/anonymous/ttb/ ...then click successively on 'patent maps' and 'cabell lands'. There you will find... 1) A text file CabelMap.TXT with explanation 2) Two data files Cab_L.DB and Amh_Nels.DB listing all surveys read 3) A folder Cab_Map_v3 containing some 17 maps (gif files) Criticisms, comments, or suggestions welcome.
