The eighth installment of this valuable genealogical resource for researchers of Shenandoah Valley families contains a wealth of information for anyone with even remote family roots in Shenandoah County. As in the preceding volumes, data from the haphazardly organized and annotated 1860 census is deciphered and presented as a companion resource to the original census materials. The census records include the number of people per family, their ages during the census, occupations held by family members, births, deaths, where buried, race, even histories of the land and area where they lived. A brief history of members of the family by marriage is also included in some entries. Illustrations include homes, family members, churches, notices in newspapers, and town scenes. Because the records are listed by dwelling number, an every name index is included along with the dwelling number of the family to make the search for relatives easier.

This book was compiled and designed to assist anyone in his or her search for family members living in Shenandoah County, Virginia, during the middle to late 1800s. This publication will, for the first time, enable genealogical researchers to add this important document to their personal research library. The entire census has been accurately reproduced as it was originally compiled. The work includes all 14,924 residents of the county in 1870. An extensive index facilitates the process of quickly locating individuals. This work has added value because it presents a concise look at the residents of a county that felt the devastation of the Civil War and the loss of many men. Detailed charts summarize personal economic worth and property value. Additional charts reflect where individuals were born and how they were employed. Assembled data depicts the number and status of blacks and women in the county after the war. More charts and a county map reflect the census districts or townships as they existed in 1870. The census for each district or township is arranged according to the dwelling (family) number beginning with the first dwelling.

The first eleven volumes (Volume 1 has been revised and expanded to two volumes: Volume 1A and Volume 1B) of this twelve-volume series contain data from the arbitrarily organized and annotated 1860 census, which is deciphered and presented as a companion resource to the original census materials. The census records include the number of people per family, their ages during the census, occupations held by family members, births, deaths, where buried, race, even histories of the land and area where they lived. Most of the volumes in this series discuss approximately two hundred dwellings each. However, the first volume contained 385 dwellings. Since Volume 1's original publication, several new sources of information were discovered. Due to this new abundance of information, the first volume has been revised and republished as two volumes: Volume 1A (Edinburg and Woodstock) and Volume 1B (Woodstock, Edinburg District, and Powells Fort). The census data, organized by dwelling number and family number, is given for each family; this is followed by detailed biographical information covering nearly every individual in each household. Information on most people includes birth and death dates, marriage dates, military activity, location of burial, education/occupation, children, second spouses, related families, census dwelling and family numbers, and the microfilm page number, when applicable. This edition also points out, where appropriate, corrections to errors or oversights in the original Volume One. 2022, 51/2x81/2, paper, index, 454 pp.
