This volume of the Fauquier County, Virginia series contains entries from Fauquier County Minute Book, 1759-1762 beginning on page 355 and ending on page 374 for courts held September 24, 1762 through December 23, 1762; and, Fauquier County Minute Book, 1763-1764 beginning on page 1 and ending on page 219 for courts held March 24, 1763 through October 27, 1763.

Court minute books contain minutes of all matters brought before the court when it was in session and may contain important information not found anywhere else. A wide variety of information is found in court minute books including appointments of county and militia officers, records of legal disputes heard before the county court, appointments of guardians, apprenticeship of children by the overseers of the poor, naturalizations, road orders, and registrations of free Negroes. An index to full-names, places and subjects adds to the value of this work.
