About this series:

In 1782 the General Assembly of Virginia enacted new tax laws which created within each county an enumeration of land and certain personal property. These early land tax laws required a tax commissioner in each district of a county to record a list of the names of persons owning land or town lots, the quantity of land owned and its value, and the amount of tax owed. By 1813, a brief geographic description (usually citing an adjacent stream, road, or other landmark) was required; in 1814, the distance and direction from the courthouse for each parcel was also added to the tax rolls.

The present work is an alphabetical listing of all 1815 landowners found in each county, as well as the accompanying description of the location of the said property. We have not included the number of acres, taxes assessed, or any transactions between landowners which may have been noted on the tax rolls; also, in many cases the geographic location was provided as "adjacent to John Smith", etc. and, while useful many times to a genealogist, was considered to be beyond the objectives of this project. The reader is encouraged to consider the information here-in as an "outline" of early landowners in Virginia rather than a "text" due to the year-to-year variation in information provided to the clerk (or recorded by the clerk), omissions, lack of "identifiers" to determine if "same name" was also "same person" within a district or across districts, marginal quality/clarity (in a few cases) of the microfilm copy, and, not least, errors on the part of either the original clerks or the current author while transcribing.

Some of the approaches to utilizing the 1815 landowner information include:

  • observe distinct clusters of the same surname within a county in order to clarify the common surnames such as "Smith", "Anderson", etc;
  • identify non-resident landowners and their county (or state) of residence (these people often being former residents of the current county);
  • determine neighbors with different surnames (often being relatives);
  • use the 1815 information as a "bridge" from the 18th and 19th century deed/will books to the 17th and 18th century land grants/patents in the county;
  • evaluate the 1810 to 1840 census information which generally grouped neighbors;
  • substitute this information for missing deed/will books in the "burned" counties; and, clarify/enhance vague deed/will information in the counties with more complete records. 

FORMAT OF PRESENTATION: Each entry is listed as: Surname, name, personal identifiers (if any); location/place-name of land; miles/direction from the 1815 courthouse. If multiple owners are listed for a property, the listing is duplicated under each of the owner's surnames (i.e "Smith and Brown" is also listed as "Brown, --see Smith"); when multiple owners share a common surname, the property is only listed once. When a landowner had land at more than one location/place-name, the miles/direction listing for each parcel is in the same sequence as the location listing (i.e. James RV, Slate CK; 12N, 5SW.). In the few cases where a landowner had "many" parcels, the miles/direction notation is attached to the location listing (i.e. Sandy RV- 5NE, Willow CK-7S, etc.)

Might stain certain fabrics?
Size: 6.76 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Style: Lotion (SPF 50)
Great product, works well. My only complaint is I believe it might have stained my white, UV blocking running top. After the first use there was yellowing all long the neckline and sleeves where I either accidentally got it on the shirt or sweating transferred it on. I’ve never had this problem before and can’t 100% be sure the lotion itself is to blame but it is the only thing that changed from other times I ran in that top. I haven’t noticed this problem with other tops so I’m not sure if it was the material itself or the color that reacted. Still going to give it 5 stars because I like the product.

My favorite.
Size: 6.76 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Style: Lotion (SPF 50)
I love this stuff. It's non-comedogenic, so it doesn't break me out. I've noticed a considerable difference in my acne scars after using it for a couple weeks. It is a little greasy and there's a very slight white cast, but I don't mind because I just let it dry and then put some powder over the top. Plus, the cast is easy to rub in and makes my skin tone look more balanced (I am white, though). Hope this helps!

Good sunblock
Size: 6.76 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Style: Lotion (SPF 50)
This is my go-to sunblock reconnect by my dermatologist. It has a good skin feel, and seems to do the job required.

Perfect protection for daily use
Size: 6.76 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Style: Lotion (SPF 50)
This is my go-to sunscreen for my daily use. I have stuck to a strict skin care routine and at the end, it’s extremely important to have a sunscreen to seal the deal. And this does just that. It doesn’t leave that nasty white streaks from the sunscreen and goes on very nicely. Out of my months of using this I have never been uncomfortable with it and the smell is very refreshing unlike other brands of sunscreen. Most importantly, this doesn’t feel greasy or overly slick. Perfect balance.

Great
Size: 6.76 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Style: Lotion (SPF 50)
While it is a bit thick, that can be great for sweaty summer activities (also it's purpose)! It does not leave a white cast (on me, though I am pale, I have experienced this with other sunscreens) and smells okay, not great but like a sunscreen would be expected to. It's not a super strong scent and does not burn my eyes. Sits good under my makeup as well.
