Synopsis

In April 1663, court sessions were first held in the newly-formed Accomack County; they continued to be held almost every month.

Besides providing a wealth of names for researchers to work with, the court records reveal valuable--and often entertaining--information concerning the region's economy, indentured servants, relations with Indians and Negroes, construction of highways, justice system, social order and mores.
