Colonial Virginia

Research on Pre-Revolutionary Colonial families can often be accomplished through
Parish Vestry Books and Registers as well as early county records such as; deeds, wills and court records. "The Virginia Colonial Records Project", a cooperative project by a number of educational institutions, to identify Colonial Records in British and European repositories, can also be researched for help with Virginia Genealogy.

Colonial Virginia

Research on Colonial families can sometimes be aided by the investigation of Revolutionary service records such as Pension and Bounty Warrant Applications. These applications often have information on the genealogy of Virginia families. We can search the archives of the Library of Virginia for the possible military service records of your ancestor in one of the original thirteen colonies. Click [here] for more information.

Virginia Confederates:

The Civil War had a profound effect on families and is important in understanding their histories. Virginia Confederate Soldier and Widow's Pension Applications often help with the genealogy of Virginia families during this trying time in our nation's history. We can search the archives in Richmond for the available Virginia Confederate records of your ancestors. Click [here] for more information.
