Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Central Virginia Genealogical Association's primary publication, Central Virginia Heritage, dates from 1983. Our research interests are primarily on the old counties of Albemarle, Augusta, Hanover, and Orange; that is, the present Piedmont counties of Albemarle, Amherst, Appomattox, Bedford, Buckingham, Campbell, Culpeper, Fluvanna, Goochland, Greene, Hanover, Louisa, Madison, Nelson, and Orange, and the Shenandoah Valley counties of Augusta, Page, Rockingham, and Shenandoah. However, if useful articles come to us on research in other nearby counties of Virginia, we will happily consider them for publication. The current issue (v.33, no.4) offers articles on such topics as James Madison's mother, Nelly Conway; the value of obituaries; Christmas memories of a native Central Virginian; several Bills of Complaint and Wills from Virginia Chancery Court Records and the Orange County Court House, and a manumission deed.
