Only to purchase. I have looked at that book at our Historical library in  
Philadelphia. Thanks for thinking of all us.

I am  going to try  and reply to several of you in one email. 

Janice, I have  not  posted sites. I was asking if others would do so with 
good sites they  have  found that are not on Ancestry.com or another paid 
source. Will  however, post  some too.

Claude, I have run across the 1704 Quit  Rent site as Ihave  looked on 
Virginia RootsWeb in the various  counties. Dumb me did not copy down  the 
URL or 
save it. Now I cannot  find it. I hope maybe someone has it book  marked to 
share. But it is  there. I promise. 

As for searching for line  prior to 1700, I  have two mainstays. One is 
Purse and Person and the other is  Pioneer  and Cavaliers. Both are 
wonderful 
sources of early material. They  are  not on line other than in a paid 
source. 
But most all libraries  with a  genealogical area have them both. There are 
multiple books in  each and P&P  is sourced! Just beware that in P&C there 
are  
many men who were a  transportee who were claimed by a number of  people. I 
copied down all Thomas  Greens and was amazed to find about  15 or more who 
were all transportees into  VA. Some in the same  county and some in 
neighboring counties. It takes time  and work to  get them straight.

I have also used the early Parish  records, The  Vestry Book and Register 
of 
St. Peter’s Parish for one,   when  they exist and have been amazed at the 
amount of information I found  in  New Kent County when I went through it 
page 
by page! DO NOT just  use the  index! I found approximate death dates when 
someone was  replaced on the  Vestry.

Let me go and search my saved emails and  see what good web  sites I can 
share and I hope you will do the same.
