Welcome!.....to our World of Genealogy!
We are constructing this website for all who are doing research in the counties of Greensville, Southampton and Sussex. You see, the common thread among Emory, Stuart, Elwood, and me is these 3 counties. Now, of course, our research has taken us to other areas; but it seems that we always end up back .......in the SOUTHSIDE OF VIRGINIA!
