Includes the counties of Culpeper, Virginia, Fairfax, Fauquier, Frederick, Independent City of Alexandria, Independent City of Fredericksburg, Independent City of Winchester, Loudoun, Madison, Orange, Prince William, Rockingham, Shenandoah, Spotsylvania, Stafford.

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:

  1. observe distinct clusters of the same surname within a county in order to clarify the common surnames such as "Smith", "Anderson", etc;
  2. identify non-resident landowners and their county (or state) of residence (these people often being former residents of the current county);
  3. determine neighbors with different surnames (often being relatives);
  4. 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;
  5. evaluate the 1810 to 1840 census information which generally grouped neighbors;
  6. 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.)

Includes indices and maps.

Thinks a fun little sniffy toy
Color: blue, Color: blue
My puppy seemed curious and didn’t mind playing with this sniffy toy. It’s large and well made and has plenty of title spots to hide stuff. I put kibble in it and my little puppy sniffed and googled a way. I guess this is great for keeping dogs busy and entertained. It’s a pretty cool little way to give dogs treats or snacks.

Spunky Pup toys are the best for aggressive chewers! ❤️
Size: 1 Count (Pack of 1), Style: Heart
We have an Amstaff (American Staffordshire Terrier) who is definitely an aggressive chewer and a known toy destroyer. That's just how she enjoys her toys, lovingly tearing them to shreds and pulling their "guts" out. Sometimes she will allow the toy carcass to last a while so she can continue to play with whatever is left of it for a while longer. It has honestly been a challenge to find durable toys that she can't destroy, but Spunky Pup toys seem to be one of the only brands that can actually withstand our dogs tough love! Her first Spunky Pup toy we got her was a squeaky blue diamond gem, much like this heart gem, and it is still completely intact after several months of use! She loves it and we love the fact that it's so durable that she hasn't been able to destroy it. It squeaks and it bounces around sporadically, the unpredictability of not knowing which way its going to bounce adds a new level of excitement which seems to keep her attention a little longer. She loves her diamond and she was super excited to get her new heart gem! They're pretty similar, so she loves them both, although the heart one seems to be just a little smaller and therefore a little easier to catch in her mouth. But it doesn't stop her from trying (and most of the time succeeding) to catch the diamond one in her mouth, it's just not as easy to catch as a normal ball. Spunky Pup toys are really durable and super adorable! We are definitely going to be buying more Spunky Pup toys to add to her growing collection. 100% recommend for aggressive chewers!
