2 Frederick County, Virginia Minutes of Court Records, 1743-1745
John David Davis
Reg. Price: $29
(2001), 2008, 5½x8½, paper, index, 322 pp, Heritage Books
In 1632, the first settlers from Europe who journeyed into the Shenandoah Valley were Jesuit missionaries. They inhabited the region that was to become Frederick Co., VA. The missionaries paved the way for those who moved into this region from MD and PA, many of whom were of Scottish, German and French descent. Originally part of Orange Co., Frederick Co. was formed in 1638, but its government was not officially organized until 1743. This work documents the minutes of court records during the first few years following the inception of the county government (1743-1745). A full name index covers both plaintiffs and defendants.

John David Davis
Reg. Price: $29
2005, 5½x8½, paper, index, 370 pp, Heritage Books
Sir George Carteret was appointed New Jersey's first governor in August 1665, at the age of twenty-five. In July 1673, the Dutch reconquered New York and New Jersey and they remained until Britain regained the two colonies in November 1674. In March 1674, Sir George agreed to a partition of the province into East and West New Jersey. The diagonal boundary gave Sir George all the inhabited lands. The two "divisions" remained separate until 1702, when New Jersey became a royal province. The format followed in the abstraction of the deeds of West Jersey, New Jersey is: date of transaction, name of grantor(s), occupation of the grantor(s), place of residence of grantor(s), name of grantee(s), occupation of the grantee(s), place of residence of grantee(s), sales price, area of land involved, neighbors, chain of deed, signature of grantor(s) and signature of witnesses. Contains a full name index.
