Virginia Immigrants and Adventurers, 1607-1635: A Biographical Dictionary

Most of my family that was at Jamestown is in the book, some are still out of the book.

For anyone researching or very interested in the Jamestown time period, and the history of the settlement, this book is almost indispensable. It is more of a reference book to look up individuals, rather than something you would read cover to cover. It gives very good references for each and every person mentioned, some of whom were very obscure, yet included in this work.

I've never bought a resource book before. This isn't something you sit back and read like a novel, you can thumb through it, and look for your family name, and see the interactions between other people in the colony, and your relative. My ancestor John Woodall was in this extensively, and would be interesting to any other Woodall's out there that have relatives from Virginia.

I first purchased the paperback version of Virginia Immigrants and Adventurers: A Biographical Dictionary, 1607-1635 and the pages came loose from the binding the first day. I then purchased the hardback version that is basically the paperback with a hard cover front and back with a more flexible spine. The hardback version's pages have not come loose from the binding. The book's content is wonderful for the reference material content.

this book has been a great source for Jamestown arrival info for my genealogy work. includes some great stories too. very pleased.

I'm a genealogist and this book is a genealogy bible to me when it comes to early Virginia settlers. It is stuffed full of data and hard to find information. I have located info on quite a number of ancestors in this book and I consider it an invaluable asset to my research. The price is very fair also considering the size of the book.

Have been patiently tracking my family tree over a 30 year period. When I saw this book I bought it and was rewarded with finding my lost ancestor link. This book helped me to greatly and is a great reference book. Would recommend it toi anyone searching for early VA history and the immigrants who arrived between 1607 and 1635.

.Received the book ahead of time and it is everything I was looking for plus.
