Marriage And Death Notices From The Genius Of Liberty 1817 1843

The weekly newspaper, Genius of Liberty was published in Leesburg, Virginia, between January 1817 and May 1843. From its beginning, brief announcements of marriage and death were included. These notices were extracted and published as a Special Edition of Northern Virginia Genealogy in 2005. Entries herein are arranged by volume and publication date. The style of the entries is not consistent. Marriage entries include the names of the groom and bride, the date, and the name of the officiant; some entries include additional information such as place of residence, name of parent, and/or other related data. Death entries include the name of the deceased and date of death; some entries include additional information such as age, place of residence, name of parent, cause of death, and/or other related data. Leesburg residents were more likely to be mentioned in the Genius of Liberty, but "there are notices from as far away as Warren County, Virginia, and New York." A full-name index adds to the value of this work.
