Just ran across the following from Orange Co, VA, 1751: "The Pet[ition] of William Donaught Humbly Begs that your Worships will allow me my Tobacco for Sucker Hunting Last year according to the list I sent your worships . . ." "Sucker hunting"??? Any clues from the learned listers? Please pardon the cross-post. Cheers. Jim Watkinson James D.
