I hope the Sheriff won't delete this as an illegal advertisement, but I thought this book might be of interest to someone on the list. All my VA ancestors were located along the Rappahannock, York, and James Rivers. I haven't found any along the Potomac, so I don't need the book. An extension of my GenHobby is surfing antique stores/junk shops, etc, looking for family, county and local history books. The other day I found POTOMAC LANDINGS, by Paul Wilsatch, 1937 edition. Hardback, 378 pages, lots of illustrations, and early settlers names mentioned. A great map of the Potomac with plantations, creeks, etc, shown. Well indexed. I paid $13.44, including sales tax, for the book, so that plus postage is exactly what it will cost anyone interested. I DO NOT profit from any such transactions, as many all over the country can attest. Contact me direct.
