I have a question about a source for the makeup of colonial Virginia during the eighteenth century. I have some notes describing the "Planter Elite," but no source! The description of the social categories are: Among the whites, gentry are 5%. Small landowners 50% Tenants 20% Poor whites 25% I would like to use some of these approximate figures in my research, but am wondering if anyone knows of a source for this, or similar, breakdown?
