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.)

A little dissappointed
Format: Kindle
I expected more umph or something from this book written by this author. The book is generic and not memorable at all. However, I do appreciate the author's time and effort she put into writing this and I wish her all the best. Happy Reading to you

Fantastic!
Format: Kindle
There is much to love about this story. The setting is wonderful, with picturesque descriptions of the beautiful English village where most of the story takes place; a cast of fun, quirky characters who come to life as the chapters go by; and a fantastic pair of leading ladies with chemistry to spare. But what truly stands out is the sharp, witty banter between the characters throughout the story. Frequently writers will have strong dialog between the protagonists, but T. B. Markinson has managed to write an entire story full of brilliantly crafted dialog between all of the characters, leading to so many great moments that are humorous, emotional, witty, sarcastic, etc... It is a fantastic story to read. I received an ARC copy of this book.

Well Done!
Format: Kindle
You just can’t go wrong with a T.B Markinson book, The first in this series starts of with two wayward souls that meet by chance in a quaint little town of Cotswolds village. Needless to say, fate brings them together in the most craziest situation... which never goes well when your dealing with a meddling family and it’s drama. Needles to say the author does a great job creating plenty of banter and word play between the two main characters. You can’t help but root for the two and pray they figure things out to give them a HEA...I can’t wait for the next two books in this series by two more of my favorite authors.

5 beautiful stars for this masterpiece
-he falls first -ptsd/mental health rep -broken golden boy mmc -black cat fmc -found family -college hockey 5 beautiful stars for this masterpiece! i’m in awe that this is a debut novel — peyton’s story is the perfect combination of angst, swoon, pain, & love. her writing instantly captures you & feels like it’s wrapping you in the biggest, coziest hug. rhys is the definition of a walking green flag (literally though this man can do no wrong) after an intense injury the previous season, rhys is trying to feel at home again on the ice but is struggling with ptsd & panic attacks. he’s very quiet about what he’s going through which leads to him trying to resolve everything on his own. i loved rhys’ character development in this one. seeing him open up first to sadie and then to his family & friends was a huge step. the scene with him & his dad actually had me bawling. rhys has the biggest heart, he loves unconditionally, and is such a teddy bear. my favorite thing about him was how easy it was for him to give his love not just to sadie but to her brothers as well. rhys is the kind of person who will be there for you no matter what, even if you push him away he never backs down. i thought peyton’s representation of ptsd/mental health was beautifully written my sadie baby. she is EVERYTHING. caring for her brothers while trying to maintain her figure skating scholarship, grades, and two jobs was not easy. but she did it all by herself. her love for her brothers is so unconditional. i love how real these characters feel and how we got to see sadie both mentally & physically exhausted. what she was doing isn’t easy and it definitely took its toll on her but seeing her in those stages of feeling defeated or like nothing could go right made her feel so real and like someone you could connect with. sadie is super protective and she’s not afraid to put up a fight if you wrong the ones she loves. we get to see sadie in all her glory — happy, sad, doubtful, defeated, anxious, loving, confident, feisty, and so much more. it’s what makes her real. my favorite thing about sadie was getting to see her fall in love and accept the love she deserves from those around her rhys & sadie together is a twin flame burning the brightest shade. after sadie helps rhys through a panic attack (and introduces him to the best taste music) they instantly have a connection. rhys sees her and feels safety & comfort. sadie instantly tries to keep her space since she has so much on her plate and thinks she doesn’t deserve someone like him. but what they share is undeniable and soon they start hanging out more as friends until the tension and chemistry shared between them explodes. they both help each other in so many different ways. they balance and lean on one another. the are golden and perfect and indescribably in love. sadie helps rhys feel like it’s okay not to be perfect all the time & rhys helps show sadie she deserves to be loved and that it’s okay to accept help. seeing them fall in love was so beautiful & i’m sad i’ll never be able to experience that for the first time again. they are GOLDEN *also shoutout to rhys’ parents for being the absolute best* this book is a masterpiece! it gives boys of tommen found family vibes along with the perfect combination of sports romance & angst. everyone needs to stop what they’re doing and read this book right now! i don’t even know who book 2 is about but all i know is that i can’t wait to go back to this world and these characters because i’m seriously so in love with them. peyton, i’m in awe of you & so so proud. this is easily in my top 10 books of the year. i can’t wait to see what’s coming next and i feel so lucky that i get to experience your writing journey🧡 songs: peace, daylight, & you are in love
