Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Calendar of Virginia State Papers and Other Manuscripts, Vol. 5: From July 2, 1790, to August 10, 1792 Preserved in the Capitol at Richmond
The present volume of the Calendar of Virginia State Papers is the fifth of the series, about one half of which was arranged and edited by Dr. Wm. P. Palmer, M. D., of Richmond, Virginia, when failure of health compelled him to abandon the work which he was so well qualified to conduct and complete, and the residue of the volume was arranged and edited by the subscriber, with an index added. Each successive volume of the Calendar furnishes facts and information illustrative of the history, genealogy, and biography oi'the people of Virginia, for the most part not to be obtained elsewhere. Much knowledge of the genealogy of Virginians is derived from the numerous names and places recorded in the Calendar - often indicating an ancestor who had been sought in vain, through all the mists of tradition and vague history.
