Our goal is to help you track your ancestors through time by transcribing genealogical and historical data and
placing it online for the free use of all researchers.

We regret that we have no time to perform personal research
for anybody.

River. the county was abolished in 1776, and divided into three
new counties—Montgomery County, Washington County, and Kentucky

No county seat was ever established for Fincastle County, but the
colonial governor ordered it to be placed at the "Lead Mines" of
Wythe County, where Austinville, Virginia, is now located. Fincastle
County may have been named for either Viscount Fincastle or for
his son Lord Fincastle.
