Overview"This is the fourth volume of a four-volume set, which contains abstracts of the Loudoun County, Virginia Office Judgments Books for 1786-1847. This volume presents abstracts from two books: the first covers the period 1835-1842; the second covers the period 1842-1847. Entries may include: name of administrator, assignee, attorney, defendant, plaintiff, sheriff, deputy sheriff, or others; judgment, security, interest charged, and more. Debt cases ""dominated civil court dockets throughout the colonial period."" During this period, Virginia court clerks were required to keep judgment dockets, which recorded any amount of money rendered in his court, and as requested, any court within the Commonwealth or federal court; any judgment for money and the time from which it would bear interest; the specific amount; and, the names of creditors and debtors and their addresses (if known), etc. In order to endow credit agreements with greater security, the court was often used ""as a rational mechanism to record debts."" A full-name index adds to the value of this work. 2015, 51/2x81/2, paper, index, 352 pp." Full Product DetailsAuthor: Patricia B DuncanPublisher: Heritage Books Imprint: Heritage Books Dimensions: Width: 14.00cm , Height: 1.90cm , Length: 21.60cm Weight: 0.408kg ISBN: 9780788456213ISBN 10: 0788456210 Pages: 354 Publication Date: 21 October 2015 Audience: General/trade , General Format: Paperback Publisher's Status: Active Availability: In stock We have confirmation that this item is in stock with the supplier.
