DMK Heritage Project converted this historic book into a digital format for in-depth research for genealogist and historians with limited time and resources. The book was converted into an Adobe PDF format and is searchable with Adobe Acrobat Reader (a free program from Adobe) or Preview for the iMac. A new complete index was created of last names for quick identification To maintain the integrity of this historic book, images of each page of the book are provided on a separate PDF file to resolve any questions concerning the conversion to an electronic format. Both PDF files are placed on one CD for your convenience.

This 352 page book (not including index) gives general information and history of the churches (parishes) and lists the ministers along with some of the early parishioners. Dates are approximately 1640- 1750. This would be a good place to break down "brick walls" in Virginia.
