Notes
Microfilm of original records at the Clarke County Courthouse in Berryville, Virginia.
Some handwriting is faded and hard to read.
For these cases the Circuit Court sat in chancery which meant it acted as a court of equity. Equity law is a body of legal and procedural rules and doctrines which supplement or override common and statute law to protect rights and enforce duties defined or fixed by substantive law. The court usually dealt with cases which did not need a jury, such as divorces or foreclosures.
The Circuit Superior Court of Law and Chancery was replaced in 1851 by the Circuit Court.
Volumes are individually indexed. Some indexes are found at the back of the volume.
