Greenbrier Pioneers & Their Homes
"Mrs. Dayton blends genealogy with architectural history to capture the pioneer days of Lewisburg and surrounding Greenbrier County. Each chapter treats an important building over 100 years old at the time of the book's original publication in 1942 and the people who either built, occupied, or were otherwise associated with it. The author recounts the history and descriptions of nearly 100 homes, schools, taverns, and farms in Greenbrier County from their erection until the middle of the 19th century, illustrating many of them with graceful line drawings. While the genealogical coverage of the buildings' inhabitants varies, in most cases we are given the names of the original head of household, his spouse and children; the names of subsequent owners and their families; years occupied; something of the residents' lives and/or careers; and more."The Personal Property Tax Lists for the Year 1787 for Greenbrier County, Virginia

Historical Records of Old Frederick and Hampshire Counties, VirginiaLand Lease Indenture, 1778From the Seller: "From Teverner BEALE of Shenandoah County (Virginia) to Isaac ZANE of Frederick County for land in Hampshire County on the Cacapehon river. Nov. 4, 1778. Witnesses include Gabriel JONES (well worth reading about! ), Peter HOG, John MAGILL, Edwin YOUNG and Geo. A. (illegible). 8" x 3. 5". Of Isaac ZANE much has been written, so that none is needed here. Collectors need to remember that the grantee did not sign an indenture unless he waived title in favor of someone else. Thus this ZANE association item is not signed, though Gabriel JONES' signature as attorney and crusty individualist is sufficient for this item. Four-inch split at one fold."
