In The Virginia Magazine of History and Biography, Vol. I (January, 1894), No. 3, pp. 242-244, appeared an article entitled, A of the Parishes in Virginia-June 30th, 1680. This article was preceded by the following note: [This of the Parishes in Virginia was printed as a Senate Document (Extra) in 1874, but as it is scarce and little known, it is thought well to print it here to fill out the lists for 1680.] State Papers, Colonial Vol. 60, No. 410, June 30th, 1680. Recently, through the courtesy of Mr. Wilmer L. Hall, State Librarian of the undersigned was furnished with a photostat of the original of Parishes in Virginia, which is preserved in the Public Record Office, London (endorsed C. 0. 1/45), a manuscript copy of which the contributor of the article in The Virginia Magazine had evidently made use of in preparing his article. This photostat was secured from London by the Virginia State Library for preservation in the Archives Division of the Library. Upon comparing the List as printed in The Virginia MAayla2ine of History and Biography with the photostat of the original manuscript List, the undersigned discovered the following errors: 1. The alignment of the printed List is totally different from that of the original manuscript. Apparently the alignment of the original document was entirely disregarded by the copyist or by the contributor of the article (whose name does not appear), the result being that-even if there were no other errors in the article-it would be impossible for any reader to be certain in the case of many of the parishes in the List as printed whether or not there was a minister, or, if so, who the minister was. 2. In six instances (where the parishes of Yorke, New Pocoson, Petsoe, Abington, Choatanck, and Winacommico are mentioned) the name of the parish has been misspelled, in two cases so fundamentally as to change the name entirely. 3. In six instances (where the names of the Rev. Messrs. Moyce, of Surry County; Kern, of Lower Norfolk County; Clack, of Gloucester County; Dacres, of Rappahannock County; Dacres, of Northumberland County; and Wough, of Stafford County
