Scott County, Virginia Overseers of the Poor, 1815-1850 "POOR IS THE NATION THATSCOTT COUNTY, VIRGINIA OVERSEERS OF THE POOR, 1815 1850 [Welfare in rural Virginia] Transcribed & edited by Karen Wagner, Treacy, AMDG. viii, 235pp., every name index (8. 25" x 10. 75" paperback). The value of the records of the overseers of the poor cannot be overestimated. Oftentimes, those individuals who fall upon difficult circumstances or, through no fault of their own happen to be bastards [i. e., base born] are lost in the official records.
