Virginia Northern Neck Land Grants, 1775-1800. [Vol. III] by Gray

The headright system, widely used for acquiring land in Virginia was never recognized in Virginia's Northern Neck. People wanting to acquire land there had to purchase a warrant and obtain a survey before they were issued a grant. The original Grant Books, now on microfilm, were used in making this collection of abstracts, and they generally provide the following information on some 5,000 Northern Neck residents: the name of the grantee, dates of warrant and survey, date and location of grant, amount of acreage, names of former owners/occupiers, names of adjacent property owners, and often the names of heirs and other family members.

Dave Gray, SVP Strategy at Dachis Group, is a management consultant and author who helps the world's most successful firms build and implement winning strategies. Gamestorming (O'Reilly) is his earlier book, which has sold over 50,000 copies and been translated into 14 languages.
