Named for Thomas Jefferson, Jefferson County, Virginia, was formed
from Berkeley County, Virginia, in 1801. It remained a part of
Virginia until 1863. Both Berkeley and Jefferson Counties voted for
secession from the United States in the vote taken on May 23, 1861;
then in 1863, voted in favor of annexation to West Virginia. In
1871, the U.S. Supreme Court decided in Virginia v. West Virginia
to uphold the secession of West Virginia (including Berkeley and
Jefferson Counties) from Virginia. These abstracts are of the
Jefferson County, Virginia records from the county's formation in
1801 until it became part of West Virginia in 1863. Will Book
Volume 1 covers 1801 to 1813; Will Book Volume 2 covers 1813 to
1816. These abstracts provide pertinent names and dates, including
administrators, executors, appraisers, distributees and legatees,
purchasers at sales, slaves, court order dates and date the item
was received in court for recording. A full-name index adds to the
value of this work.
