About The Link

This book was published in 1984 under the sponsorship of the William Pitt Chapter, National Society Daughters of the American Revolution, Chatham, Virginia. It is long out of print. Its content is provided here in PDF files for the convenience of researchers, and with deep gratitude to the dedicated DAR members who carefully compiled it.

The Link contains only the data current in 1983. All subsequent changes are maintained by the town offices of Chatham, with the assistance of Scott Funeral Home, and are not available in this publication or on this website.
