We would like to extend a special invitation to anyone interested in the
history of black families in Grayson to join us Thursday, August 31, beginning at
7:00PM to discuss a project we have just started on local black family
history. We have compiled a set of family group sheets based on census,
marriage, birth, and death records for all black families we could
identify as being in Grayson between 1870 and 1930. We would like to
share that information with local residents and welcome you to share
your information with us.

The Grayson County, Virginia Heritage Foundation is holding an open
house on Thursday, July 31, and would like to invite anyone with an
interest in Grayson Co. VA history or families to stop by and visit our office
any time that day between 10:00 and 5:00. The office is located in the
Mini-Mall section of the Guynn Shopping Center on East Main Street in
Independence, VA.
