“This massive compilation identifying over 4000 Revolutionary War veterans and patriots buried in over 1600 public, church and private family cemeteries throughout every county and independent city in Virginia will serve as an essential guide for future researchers. Arranged alphabetically by name of patriot and with an index of all other individuals mentioned within the sketches, it provides vital statistics, service details, location of grave (many with GPS coordinates), reference to pension, bounty warrant certificates and other evidence of service, and an extensive bibliography of pertinent sources. Mike Lyman has rendered a tremendous service in assembling the information and seeing it to press”
