This is the Culpeper County entry in the series of Virginia Revolutionary "Publick" Claims booklets containing useful information about the contributions of ordinary people to the Revolutionary War.

As Continental forces and Virginia militia units were engaged in winning independence, American quartermasters and provisioners struggled to provide these units with all the necessities of life, from meals and guns to meat, fodder for horses, the horses themselves, firewood, and every other type of material. Much of this was requisitioned from the civilian population and certificates were issued payable in either continental or state funds, depending on the units supplied, upon presentation to court authorities. Thousands of these certificates issued to Virginians were duly entered by the courts, and they provide a fascinating insight into the period of the Revolution.

These "Publick" Claims booklets contain interesting and useful information about the contributions of ordinary people to the Revolutionary War. They provide some details of people's service in the militia or as guards for prisoners of war; they indicate where some bodies of troops were at particular times; and they identify providers of horses, wagons, cattle, grain, or other supplies.

Much of the information in these booklets cannot be found anywhere else, which makes the surviving records particularly valuable. Also remarkable is the fact that records survived from virtually every county in the state at that time with the exception of the newly formed Kentucky counties. This makes the collection even more valuable in covering areas which heretofore in this time period have suffered from a lack of personal data.

This is an extremely important genealogical tool for searchers in Revolutionary-era materials.

Wedding/Groomsmen: large Fit my husband perfect. The pants have a a spot with elastic so you can make them smaller if need be. Great color, lightweight and just as good of quality as Men's Wherehouse would rent.

Great value
Size: Medium, Color: Light Champagne
I bought this for my teenage son for homecoming, it really was a great value suit for the price. It even held up after a full night of dancing. He’s about 6 foot and 200 pounds So it’s very true to size

Overall ok
Size: Small, Color: Light Gray, Size: Small, Color: Light Gray
I purchased this for my son for homecoming. 6’, 170, size S. The pants fit well, the jacket is kind of boxy. If you’re looking for a more slim fit on jacket, this is not it. It was too late for us to get anything else. Overall, it was fine. The sleeves At wrist not as crisp. I had to really press to give crisp shape. I steamed the heck out of it. My son was OK with it. Holds up well for one time use. Color was what we wanted.
