Hello You sparked me to look at these records. My question is how do you read the print? It is so small I'm unable to read. Is there a way to make them larger?

Total Pages Grants C 1729-1731 (VOL.1 & VOL.2 p.1-227) 290 227 Grants D 1731-1732 291 684 Grants E 1736-1742 (VOL.1 & VOL.2 p.1-525) 291 525. I was searching for a Northern Neck Grant Corresponding to the following listing, that I found in an old posting at http://files.usgwarchives.net/va/frederick/land/landgrants/h3000000.txt <http://files.usgwarchives.net/va/frederick/land/landgrants/h3000000.txt > The posting read, "Jacob Better, 400 acres surveyed 1735, survey Nos. 6, 7." I did not find the grant, as there seems to be a four-year gap in the record. Is the gap an omission or are there no records for Northern Neck Grants made between 1732 and 1736?
