County court minute books contain records of all matters brought before the court while in session. The information contained in these records may not appear elsewhere. The minute books typically provide an account of court cases in a relatively organized format. Records you may find include appointments of local officials and militia officers, records of legal disputes, appointments of guardians for minors, apprenticeships of minors authorized by overseers of the poor, naturalizations, road orders, and the register of free Negroes.
This book contains entries from Fauquier County Minute Book 1773-1780 beginning on page 376 and ending on page 485 for Courts held May 24, 1779 through November 27, 1780; and the Fauquier County Minute Book 1781-1784 beginning on page 1 and ending on page 40 for Courts held February 5, 1781 through March 26, 1782.
