| Virginia Births Thanks to cousin Donal S. West I take the Clinton Ohio Chronicle in it there is something you might check: "Virginia Births Until 1876, all children born in Virginia regardless of religious affilitiation, were required to be baptized in the Episcopal Church, which was the state church. Parish registers giving names, date of birth, and names of parents are in the Virginia State Library in Richmond." Maybe we can find the birth dates of all the WEST'S. Also the lost family in Fairfax Co VA. Sarah West who married a Mr. Thomas. - Donal S. West [Note: Sarah West was daughter of Thomas West and Sarah Trammell] |
