If your ancestors lived in Virginia, this collection can help you learn more about them. It includes information on over 135,000 people from the 1700s to the 1900s. Each name is tied to a real event, such as buying land, getting married, or writing a will.
These records are not just lists of names. They also show family ties, friendships, and community connections. For example, a land deed might name a neighbor as a witness. A marriage record might include parents or siblings. A will could name children, spouses, or even business partners.
Land records are invaluable for figuring out when someone arrived in Virginia. Marriages help link families together. Probate records can show what a person owned and who inherited it. These clues can help fill in missing parts of your family tree.
This collection is also helpful if you’re missing birth or death records. In many Virginia counties, those records were lost or never created. But these land, marriage, and probate files can often take their place.
If you’re researching your Virginia roots, this set can help you find key people, places, and events in your family’s past. It’s a great way to expand your tree and learn about who your ancestors knew—and what they left behind.
