County court order books contain records of all matters brought before the court while in session. The information contained in these records may not appear elsewhere. The order books typically provide a synopsis of court cases in a relatively organized format. Records you may find include rulings of the court in civil matters such as property disputes and slaves, and much more.
This volume contains records from Caroline County Order Book, 1764-1765, beginning on page 51 and ending on page 266 for courts held February 1764 through 14 September 1764. The first entry, page 51, is not dated; the following entry (page 52) is dated February 1764. An every-name index adds to the value of this work.
