Early Virginia Religious Petitions
October 16, 1776, Miscellaneous, "Ten-thousand name" petition by Dissenters from whole state, for ending established church, and for institution of religious equality. This petition was found at the Library of Congress and it is on line. You might want to check to see if your ancestor is listed on one of the 250 pages(Note: some pages are blank).
Names I found of interest to me are Nichols, Nicholson, John, Peter and Ambrose Corbin, James Ramsbottom, James Maxwell, Berry, Lillard, Norman, John Reed, Bywaters, and neighbors are all listed.
