  1. In researching my own family I learned about an ancestor in the Virginia colony who died in 1742 on board a British vessel off of Georgia in what was called the "The War of Jenkin's Ear". Needless to say it was something I had never heard of. I think it would be a great short subject for your viewers (unless you have covered this and I missed it?). Thanks!

  2. Hi Rad - if you like to read check out the book Albion's Seed by David Hackett Fischer. A MUST read for those of us with deep Virginia roots - in my opinion.
