Randle Deeds
RANDLE DEEDS and COURT ORDERS for BRUNSWICK CO, VA
I have put together deed abstracts that have been found by different people
for the Randle family of Brunswick County, VA in the 1700's. I found several
of these myself as did Kay Oatas. Some of them are abstracts mentioned in a
paper by Edith Whitley and some found on the Brunswick Co, VA site as well as
books at the library. I feel that putting them in order of occurence might
help sort some of these guys out. If you have any to add that I don't have here for Brunswick County, Virginia, send them to me at EleanorCol@aol.com and I will add them to the page. I will start another page for other counties in Virginia if any of those are sent to me. Thanks for your help!
