Litwalton still exists on modern Virginia road maps. The corner is now better known as the intersection of Marritico and River Roads. It is located in Virginia's Northern Neck-- that long peninsula of land between the Rappahannock and Potomac Rivers where the Rappahannock and Potomac Rivers slowly wend their way South and East to meet the Chesapeake Bay. I am a native of the St. Louis, Missouri area but have lived in Virginia off and on since 1997. To use an old Virginia term, "right many" of my ancestors hail from the Northern Neck. I enjoy genealogy so much that I turned it from an avocation to a vocation. In addition to court house research in the local area, I am an avid volunteer at the Mary Ball Washington Museum & Library in Lancaster Court House. I spend a lot of time at the Library of Virginia in Richmond, and and a fair amount of time working in Culpeper and Madison counties.
