Chesterfield County (Va.)
Chesterfield County was formed in 1749 from Henrico County.
An act passed by the Virginia legislature in 1803 required every free negro or mulatto to be registered and numbered in a book to be kept by the county clerk.

Some clerks recorded additional information not required by the law.
