Friends,

I hope this email finds everyone doing well and staying safe. My focus this month is to provide updates from the Clerk's Office including the newly restored records my office received. I have also included the latest photos from the Augusta County Courthouse virtual photograph tour. Please enjoy the latest photos.

Augusta County Clerk of Court Receives Newly Restored Records

The Clerk's office recently received eight important historic records back after extensive conservation work was completed on each record book. The documents include deed books, order books, will books and register of deaths ranging from 1745 to 1839.

Virginia Court of Clerk's Association Convention

This past weekend I had the honor to attend the Virginia Court Clerk's Association 112th Annual Convention in Williamsburg, Virginia. We heard a number of presentations, installed our new slate of officers, networked with Clerks and Deputy Clerks, and even had a chance to tour the Colonial James City County Courthouse, pictured below. Also, pictured is the Clerk Class of 2019 of which I am proud to be a member.

Virtual Photograph Tour

This document is a page out of the Free Negro Register from 1810 certifying that Andrew Vind (we think that is the spelling) was in fact a free African American man in Augusta County.
