Botetourt County, Virginia Tithables, 1770-1782. 

Karen Wagner Treacy. During the period just prior to the outbreak of the American Revolution and throughout the conflict, a transformation was taking place in the western counties of Virginia, as thousands of settlers moved into and through the area in search of new lands. The records of this period document the very earliest settlers to the area. The author has examined and transcribed the tithables lists for the first dozen years of the county’s existence.  10 1/2 x 8 1/2, vi, 170 pages.
