Description

This dataset includes 50 TIFF files showing court orders from Westmoreland County in Virginia. They were created to settle disputes between residents within Westmoreland County and ultimately issue punishments, judgments, and fines. These documents were used to identify escaped unfree laborers in the 17th century Chesapeake and the punishments associated with their escape.
