 Living in Portsmouth, Virginia During the 1800s: (And What My Ancestors Might Have Experienced) 

​​

• In this book I present information on several areas (government, education, communities, entertainment, health, trade, economy, transportation, infrastructure improvements, influential external events, and population and other attributes) based on research in these areas, analyzing what it might have been like living in Portsmouth in the 1800s. 

• My interests in living in Portsmouth in the 1800s is because I have several ancestors who lived in Portsmouth in the 1800s. Ancestor names discussed are: Luke; Shepherd; Ballentine; Dale; Etheridge; Herbert; Lewellyn; McPherson; Porter; and Veale. 

• The information presented in this book is based on researching several sources of archival information. Much information presented comes from Artificial Intelligence searches.
