Handwritten Genealogy & Family History Written between 1919 and 1925 by William Buckner McGroanty
Handwritten Genealogy & Family History
This is truly a rare and unique piece.
Written sometime between 1919 and 1925 as those are the 20th c dates I have found.
References to births going back to 1677 (earliest that I found).
There are 200 pages in the book plus many loose notes - almost every surface is written on.
Belonged to William Buckner McGroanty (sp?) Falls Church Va Box 155
This journal was made as a genealogical record keeper, as many pages have pre-printed on the left side "Name, Son of, born or bap. died, will , married, date of, born or bap, died & They had issue the the bottom of the page blank and then a few blank pages for notes.
The author of incorporated public and private information in the notes. Referencing wills, stories, military service, parish records, municipal records - sometimes including the volume, ledger, book, page, etc. ( some of these records may no longer exist because of damage, fire or being disposed of) .

Daniel - Maj. Gen. Robert Smith - Berryman - Alexander - Petsworth - Randolph - Slaughter - Merriweather

Craigs Ferry, Golden Vale - Col. John Catletts Estate (with diagram) and many more too numerous to name.
Also, hand drawn diagrams of estates, land owned and areas related to the research.
The writing is sometimes hard to read and I am not familiar with the old spellings of some words and the types of cursive used.
