Published as the first volume in a series of Northern Neck Warrants & Surveys, this collection has become a standard reference work for researchers in the period of colonial Augusta County history and that of its parent county, Orange.

The Northern Neck Proprietary – also called the Fairfax Proprietary, or Fairfax Grant – was a land grant first created by the exiled English King Charles II in 1649 and encompassing all the lands bounded by the Potomac and Rappahannock Rivers in colonial Virginia. This constituted up to 5,200,000 acres of Virginia's Northern Neck and a vast area northwest of it.

The grant became actual in 1660 when Charles was restored to the English throne. By 1719, these lands had been inherited by Thomas Fairfax, 6th Lord Fairfax of Cameron (1693-1781). By that time the question of the boundaries of the designated lands had also become highly contentious. It was decided in 1746 that a line between the sources of the North Branch of the Potomac and the Rappahannock River (the "Fairfax Line") would constitute the western limit of Lord Fairfax's lands. The early 17th century decade was witnessing a wave of pioneer settlement throughout the region.

To obtain land a person purchased a warrant from the proprietor’s agent specifying the precise location of the desired land. The warrant was then given to a surveyor, who surveyed the land. The plat, warrant, and any related papers were returned to the proprietor’s office, and if the title was clear, a grant was recorded and then issued. At any point after the warrant was purchased the land could be assigned (sold) to another person, and years could elapse between the purchase of the warrant and the issuance of a grant.

The volume is arranged first by county, then alphabetic by grantee. Please note: The index provided at the end of the volume contains only those persons whose reference occurs outside the alphabetic listing in the volume. It is NOT a complete index of names or places.

Size: 36 sqft
Pack a lunch when you tackle this project boys.. its a doozy!! Month in going great so far definetly did what I purchased it to do. 2000 chevy with two p3 10s every bass drop sounded like an old firebird with loose trunk bolts. Threw this on the back walls floor underneath the speaker and the doors.. all that energy is now in the cab with me instead of getting lost in rattling metal!! Love it!!! Left a few pieces outside after I was done rained like hell on them so water doesnt hurt this stuff at all or direct sunlight in south mississippi.. good stuff pick this up and make them systems thud instead of rattle!!! You wont regret it!! I didn't!!

Reasonably priced sound deadening
Size: 18 sqft
Easy to cut with a carpet knife. I used a heatgun to make it stickier and more moldable. The foil isn't so thick that you risk cutting yourself like some Dynamat variants.
