Annals of Bath County Virginia

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. For the above reasons we confine ourselves to a presentation of the more striking and important features in the story of this county. But while this was the only course possible, we have sought to treat these features with all the fullness the limits of the book would per mit. And since the present volume is a county history in a somewhat abbreviated form, we entitle it The Annals of Bath, rather than A History of Bath. Owing to the necessary limitation in space, it has been impossible to give genealogic records of the old families of the county. A partial account is all the size of the book will permit. Yet this account would cover more pages, if there had been a more general response to our requests for information. What was not furnished to us We could not put in, and we disclaim all responsibility for its non-appearance.
