Culpeper County, Virginia Deeds, Volume Four, 1765 1769

Culpeper County, Virginia Deeds, Volume Four, 1765-1769John Frederick Dorman III was a prolific genealogical researcher and author. In particular, the indexes he created for various county, city, and parish records have been of immense benefit to other genealogists. His "abstracts of Virginia county records, remarkable for their detail and accuracy, were an important component in his impressive portfolio of genealogical books, and still as valuable to the researcher today as when he originally wrote them."County records often encompass a wealth of information, such as birth, marriage, death, land, probate, and court documents, which can be overwhelming to navigate without guidance. An index allows researchers to quickly locate the specific records they need by providing key details like names, dates, and locations, thus saving valuable time. Instead of sifting through hundreds or even thousands of handwritten pages, an index presents the relevant information up front, narrowing the scope of the search and enabling a more efficient review of records.Indexes also simplify the process of searching across different types of records. County records are generally organized by document type and time period. Without an index, researchers would have to manually search through each category separately. Indexes eliminate this redundancy by allowing researchers to search for specific individuals or events across various record sets, which can provide a fuller picture of an individual's life and family connections.This volume contains abstracts from Deed Book E, 1765-1769 (pages 138-644). An index to full names and places adds to the value of this work.John Frederick Dorman(1979), 2025, 8.5" x 11", paper, index, 104 pp.ISBN: 9780788450716101-D5071
