I am currently doing research on my Episcopal parish and have found the weekly Southern Churchman to be invaluable; it dates back to about 1835. You can find a majority of these in the library at the Virginia Historical Society.

I believe they have a place in northern Virginia, I really need to go there to try to find some information that seems to have been lost in one of the "burn counties." I'm hoping some church records, minister's records, etc. will be able to help me.
