3,500 VA deaths 1897-1912 online

deliaesther@att.net — 2006-05-23T18:44:06-06:00

Hi all,
One of my websites with online information is:
Virginia deaths 1897-1912:
http://vagenealogy.homestead.com/vadths1897.html

between 1897-June 13th of 1912 the state of Virginia did not keep any records of deaths. So I have been trying to find and post as many as I can to help people.
Of course there are probably millions of deaths in those years I would think, but at least it is a start! Today I posted 30 more deaths on the site bringing the total so far to 3,500
This site is part of my
Miscellaneous Virginia Genealogy website at:
http://vagenealogy.homestead.com

I hope you find ancestors on there somewhere.

God bless,
Beth

Virginia Beach Genealogical Society

2006-01-05T14:27:03-06:00

I hold the Publicity Chair for the Virginia Beach Genealogical Society, and am having difficulty getting announcements about our society activities in the conventional media. With your permission, I would like to send you announcements of our meetings, etc.

All our regularly scheduled membership meetings are FREE of charge and open to the public. We have authoritative and/or entertaining speakers at our monthly general meetings, and we have several smaller "Special Interest Groups" or "SIGs" offering classes and/or discussion forums to disseminate information and "tricks of the trade".

We have been an organized society since 1982 and meet on the second Thursday of each month between September and May at the Virginia Beach Central Library, 4100 Virginia Beach Blvd., starting at 7:00 pm and ending no later than 9:00 pm. We also have a reservations-required dinner meeting each June, but this meeting is not free. Each reservation, whether for one or more, must be accompanied by a check to pay for the dinner(s).

Our SIGs meet as follows, except during the months of June, July, and August:

Computer SIG (COMSIG) meets regularly at 7:00 pm. on the Wednesday immediately preceding the second Thursday of each month in a meeting room of the VB Central Library. The group offers hardware, software, Internet, and techniques information to those who work on, store, and reproduce their research with computers.

The HOW-TO SIG ( HoTSIG) meets monthly to instruct and advise those who are interested in learning more about getting started or solving specific problems in genealogy. Dates and times vary but are posted ahead of time on the VBGS website: www.rootsweb.com/~vavbgs

The Lower Princess Anne County Genealogy Study Group is for those who are researching the early families in present day Virginia Beach. Each month the group studies and shares information about a different family of Old Princess Anne County. Meetings are held at the Pungo-Blackwater Public Library located in Creeds, usually starting at 10:00 am on the first Saturday of each month.

Our Writers Interest Group (WIG) meets monthly at 7:00 pm on the third Thursday (except June, July, and August) at a VB Central Library meeting room. This is specifically for those researchers who are interested in publishing their work at some point, whether in book form, newsletter submissions, or for personal use.

We also cooperate with the VB Public Library in conducting tours of the VB Central Library's materials that genealogists find useful, including books, microfilms, and periodicals. The Tours will be conducted in February, March, May, September, October, and November only. Tours last about 1-1/4 to 1-1/2 hours to complete, and begin Tuesday, February 14, 2006 at 7:30 pm, and Wednesday February 15, 2006. 10:30 am. To reserve a place on the tour, interested persons please call the VB Central Library: (757) 437-6450.

To become a member, please see our website, where dues amounts and mailing address are posted. Members receive benefits including an award-winning quarterly newsletter, and discounts on any conferences or seminars produced by the society.

If you would like monthly notice of our meetings and who our speakers are to be, please send me an email. My edress is: cdhbruce@cox.net

For any other information about VBGS, please see our website at www.rootsweb.com/~vavbgs

And if you can, pay us a visit. Everyone is welcome.
