Watson's Notes contain critically important genealogical materials on Nottoway and Amelia counties, which make up Southside Virginia. Included in this wide range of source records are abstracts from The Richmond Enquirer and other newspapers; church histories and lists of early members; notes and abstracts from county court order books; and data from land records, wills, and deeds. The work also includes biographies, reminiscences, lists of marriages and epitaphs, a list of tithables, and a selection of genealogies.
