A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

In April 1663, court sessions were first held in the newly-formed Accomack County; they continued to be held almost every month. In this book, the first volume of court orders, dating from 1663 to 1666, has been abstracted. Close to 1,000 abstracts make up this book. 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. Also included, as recorded in the court books, are tax lists and abstracts of wills and deeds.
