Re: History of Powhatan Plantation (by Dave H.):

What format are those journals in? I'm a historical geographer who studies agriculture in colonial Virginia and I'm always interested in finding new first-hand accounts.

I have journals dating back to the1700's of the Eggleston family. It gives the names of slaves and info on where they are living, and items that they are given, such as clothing, etc. Are you looking for any specific information?
