Purpose of this Page
This page seeks to compile resources to help researchers learn about the US Southern Colonies (1600-1776, including Maryland, Virginia, the Carolinas and Georgia only). It is distinct from the project's page about reliable sources that researchers are encouraged to reference when seeking data and stories about specific individuals or ancestors.
