Rappahannock County, also known as Old Rappahannock County, was created in 1656 from Lancaster County. It became extinct in 1692 when it was divided into Essex and Richmond counties. Its records are housed in Essex County. Old Rappahannock County should not be confused with the new Rappahannock County which was created in 1833 from Culpeper County.
Early volumes contain deeds, grants, wills, estate accounts and sales, estate settlements, inventories and appraisements, court orders, power of attorneys, etc. Later volumes deal mainly with deed records.
Includes general indexes. Some volumes are also individually indexed.
Microfilm of original records at the Essex County Courthouse in Tappahannock, Virginia, and at the Virginia State Library in Richmond, Virginia.
