Title
Regulation of Ferries in "Laws of Virginia", Volume VI
Description
Volume 6 of William Waller Hening's "Laws of Virginia" show the results from the General Assembly of 1748, up to page 215. Published in 1819, the volumes were a compiled source for laws in (mostly) Colonial Virginia.
Specifically, these few pages about the ferry regulation is interesting, because it includes all of the major rivers in Virginia, with the fare of crossing them from one major place to another. This includes crossing the "Potomack ... From the Plantation of George Mason, opposite to Rock creek, over to Maryland".
