Included with this volume of      probate records are a list of marriage bonds for the period 1764-1800, the      Rent Roll of 1770 (and the Rent Roll of the parent county, Prince William,      for the year 1738), cemetery inscriptions, and a variety of miscellaneous      data. Notwithstanding the terminal date of 1800 in the title of this work,      the probate records actually run up to the year 1804. Typically the      abstracts give the name of the testator; dates of instrument and probate;      names of spouse, children, and other family members; names of executors and      witnesses; the page number of the original will book in which the full will      is recorded; and detailed references to the disposition to the estate. The      marriage bonds contain the names of approximately 2,000 men and women, and      each is accompanied by a reference to the date of the bond. The index to      this work contains something near 6,000 entries.
