Some updates have been made to this site. First, the url has changed to varevwar.com, which is much less cumbersome than the former one. Second, I have greatly expanded the index. Formerly, the index was very basic and generic. I have added categories, with individuals indexed in each: militia soldiers, Continental/State Line soldiers, deserted soldiers, non-soldiers (including women), African Americans, and a category for those individuals who were not so enthusiastic about the American cause in Virginia.

Third, I have added two sections: one for Library of Virginia records that are not limited to one locality, and another for records (mostly from LVA) that are so limited. This will allow a space for me to upload some abstracted, indexed, and/or transcribed records of interest. These sections are small right now, but you might want to check back from time to time. More will be added.

For those who are wondering about my next publications, I have completed transcribing the Lancaster County court orders from the Revolution. This book will be forthcoming probably later this summer, once the index is completed. I am also nearing completion of “Selected Virginia Revolutionary War Records,” volume 4. This volume will include a transcription of Auditors’ Account Volume XVIII, which is probably the most important of the many account volumes. It will also include a transcription of APA 207 (“Expenses Incurred by Conquest & Protection of Northwest Territory”) and a full inventory of APA 238 (“General Claims Approved”). I have completed about half of the Pittsylvania County court orders from the Revolution. That publication will likely be completed next year.
