Northampton County, Virginia has the oldest continous county records in the United States. Northampton County neglected to deposit their records in Richmond during the Confederacy, thus the records were not lost when Richmond went up in flames along with other county records. These volumes contain innumerable data regarding lawsuits between individuals, wills filed with the county, estate appraisals and occasional deeds of gift. The importance of these volumes is enormous.
