3. [SW_VA] Re: SW_VA-D Digest V02 #73 [1]
Hello Leah, Rich Valley is now in Smyth County, but according to a land deed I have from 1850, it was once part of Wythe County. While I don't know if that was still true in 1870, it might be possible that your people are listed in the Wythe County Census. That is the only theory I can come up with. Sharon Hanshew-Quillen ---Original Message--- I have researched BOTH Ancestry.com's Virginia Census database index and Smyth County, Virginia's 1870 Federal Census at my local LDS family history center.

I posted this to another list dealing with some of the same areas, so please excuse it if this is a duplication. I live in California and have only briefly been to the general locality where many of my ancestors lived in the 1700's: Tazewell, Washington, Lee, and Smyth counties in Va, as well as the city of Bristol. They were the Wittens and Cecils, near Witten's Fort in Tazewell, and Darby McCarty's family who married into the Hays and Gillespie families etc. I have not been able to go much farther

7. [SW_VA] Virus Alert [1]
This may be a tad late but everyone please practice "safe computing", i.e., not downloading any attachments unless you verify with the sender that they sent it. I have daily been receiving 10-12 e-mails with attachments such as "main1930.zip" or email with the subject, "W32 Klez Removal Tools" and the attachment, "install.zip" and sundry other "zip" attachments. I suspect these are variants of Klez but I ain't willing to download it to test my anti-virus software. I would offer this suggestion, if
