"With this continuation of records from the counties surrounding Fredericksburg as well as from Fredericksburg, we begin to get a clearer picture of how the present population came to be as well as some interesting insights into life styles, patterns of migration and family 'alliances.'" The marriages were extracted from marriage bonds, marriage licenses, newspaper articles, ministers' returns and church records. "Unlike earlier documents, licenses and minister returns after 1854 contain a wealth of genealogical data." There are a large number of marriage records for people of African heritage. Also included are some records for Spotsylvania County recorded in Fredericksburg. A list of ministers for Fredericksburg and Stafford County, a list of churches in Stafford County and Fredericksburg (1851-1900), a church location map, a list of free blacks of Fredericksburg, and a full-name index add to the value of this work.
