Acquisition Information

These items came to the Library of Virginia in shipments of court papers from Middlesex County.

Historical Information

Middlesex County probably was named for the English county. It was formed from Lancaster County about 1669.

Numerous loose records from the nineteenth century including chancery, Judgments and Ended Causes, and commonwealth causes are missing. Most volumes including deed books, will books, and order books exist because court clerk Philemon T. Woodward removed them from the courthouse for safekeeping during the Civil War.

Scope and Content

Middlesex County (Va.) Judgments and Ended Causes, 1754-1818 (bulk 1784-1802), contain civil cases in which justice was administered on the strictly formulated rules of common law. The majority of cases in this record series relate to matters of debt.

All chancery causes found in this collection were removed and processed as a separate collection.
