Friday Find

Bland Marriages

Do you have photocopies from books that you hope provide information on one of the brances in your tree? Today’s Friday Find is such a set of records. It is marriage records from early Virginia for the BLAND surname. While my BLAND line likely goes back to Virginia, I hven’t found a connection between my BLAND line and the information in this source.
