This volume, Order Book of the Henrico County Court,f covers courts (sessions) beginning 3 Oct 1737 and ending 6 Oct 1746. The records of court proceedings are contained in 420 pages. In addition, blank pages at the front and rear of the book were used to record writs returned by the sheriff or his deputies.
This book has never been transcribed or abstracted. The loss of Henrico County records in 1781 left this volume as the primary record for the county during the years covered. There is some overlap with a volume of deeds and wills covering the years 1744-1748.
Order books provide considerable information about the county, local leaders, and a fair amount of gossip unavailable in the more formalized document registers such as will books and deed books.
