| Mid-18th-century Orange County was the parent county of contemporary Orange, Culpeper, Rappahannock, Madison, and Greene counties, as well as the original counties of Frederick and Augusta. Constables and tobacco planters populate the pages of this latest piece of scholarship by Lizabeth Ward Papageorgiou, and it will delight students of Orange County genealogy and local history alike. Drawing on county court order books (during a complicated period of boundary changes), published research, and other sources, Mrs. Papageorgiou has reconstructed the constable precincts, explaining where they exist today. Then, year by year between 1735-1769, she positions each constable in his corresponding precinct. In the substantial appendix to the work, the author does the same for the county's larger tithable precincts, where she spells out who was responsible for compiling each list of Orange County tithables. |
