Genealogies of Virginia Families [From The Virginia Magazine of History and Biography]

Description

This five-volume work, nearly 5,000 pages in all, contains all the family history articles to have appeared in “The Virginia Magazine of History and Biography” from 1893 through 1977. The assembled articles–hundreds of them–touch on families from all parts of the Old Dominion, and the majority trace lines of descent through as many as seven or eight generations, the data covering a period of three or four centuries or more. Upwards of 100,000 Virginians are treated in these pages, each of whom is cited in the specially prepared indexes at the back of the volumes. Please note that until now there has been no complete name index to the family history articles. Now, at last, the researcher has access not only to the completely collection of family history articles in VMHB but to a complete indexed collection as well.
