These notes are to the files of papers in
the County Court marked "Judgments." These are the
original papers in suits and causes that were instituted or
adjudicated in this Court. They are filed in bundles, wrapped,
and labeled with the term at which final judgment was entered.
The references are to the bundle first and then to the style of
the suit where the paper noted may be found. The letters used in
designating the bundle are private marking and not a part of the
official label.
Following the County Court Judgments, there are
some pages of notes to the original petitions and miscellaneous
papers which are filed with the original wills, settlements,
&c. It is not possible to fix the date of these papers in
many instances more definitely than that they were presented to
the Court within the period set out on the label of the package.
