I sat for several weeks going through a microfilm of the Court Orders, most of which was written in old English, and at first glance looks like nothing I'd ever seen before. I got most of the information I submitted last night from that one film. It is a true source. The one of the sons selecting a guardian is "Surry County, Va. Court Orders 1691-1713, Page 241, May Court, 1703". And I did make a copy of it. And I did not use all of the old spellings, as it was for my own personal use.
