    3. The two books that have been published were taken from a registry prepared by the Library of Virginia years ago. They prepared the registry from the original bonds and included all the information that was included in the bonds. Really the only thing gained by having copies of the original bonds is seeing actual signatures of the parties who signed. Most of the early bonds are on bits of paper and had written - not a form filled out. Sorry but there is no more information than what is in the published books. As you can tell from the dates of the books I listed the bonds from 1742 when the county was formed from Hanover until 1766 are missing.
