Bible Records and Cemeteries from the WPA Records

(on microfilm at the Library ofVirginia.)

This information was transcribed and submitted by 
Janice L. Abercrombie on 8/16/2002.

The directions to cemeteries and any mention of who owns the houses or Bibles would be taking place in the 1930's [most likely 1937] when the WPA records were compiled.
