Judgments

Judgments are non-chancery related cases and are often referred to as loose papers by the county clerks. Judgments represent a wealth of names of individuals who may have resided in Loudoun County but lacked property. Without property, most of these individuals would only show up in the county court cases. It provides researchers another source of court cases to research family names, personal property and original signatures in the 18th and 19th centuries.
