A public library system serving the City of Winchester and the Counties of Frederick and Clarke, Virginia. Lord Fairfax inherited all the land of what became known as the Northern Neck in Virginia.
Collection includes land grants and indentures.
Indentures are shorter-term contracts, good for a stated length of time, such as the lifetime of specified parties. Counties are listed as they appear in the record. Thomas died on December 9, 1781. The Lord Fairfax Land Grants are also on microfilm, under Northern Neck Land Grants. Researchers should be aware that the grant book and folio listed on the original grant is not the same as the microfilm location.
