Hello Everyone, I recently uncovered something I copied three or four years ago when looking for a transcribed/abstracted copy of Robert Hyde's 1710s will in York Co (original somewhere in Williamsburg I think). I had written in frustration across the top of the page something like: James City = NOTHING; New Kent Co = NOTHING; Charles City Co = ALMOST NOTHING; and York Co = PRETTY MUCH EVERYTHING, BUT BOOKS AFTER 1700. Now that I have more and more lines all pointing back to that little finger of land between the York and James Rivers, and I know many others do, I am wondering: (a) Rhetorically why, given the extensive abstracts in the 1700s for other counties done by Sparacios, Weisigers,and others, etc., has there been virtually no abstracts of York Co post-1700 records published (I know about the TLC 1730s books)? I have gone through the LVA catalog online looking at the York Co books. (b) Are there any abstracts for these 1700 York Co records underway? Yes, I am aware that a subsantial portion of the documents have been microfilmed, but I am still curious about the above questions.
