Buckingham County (Va.). Circuit Court.
Buckingham County probably was named either for the English county or for the duke of Buckingham. According to some sources, however, the name came from Archibald Cary's tract of land called Buckingham, on what was then Willis's Creek. It was formed from Albemarle County in 1761.
The records were replevined by the Library of Virginia following the trial entitled Commonwealth of Virginia vs. Larry I. Vass heard in Henrico County Circuit Court in November 1972.
Records were destroyed by fire in 1869.

Buckingham County was formed from Albemarle County in 1761. Part of Appomattox County was added to Buckingham in 1860. Buckingham County was named perhaps for the English county or possibly for a tract of land owned by Archibald Cary on what was then called Willis's Creek and known as Buckingham that had been granted to Henry Cary in 1729. The origin of the county's name, however, is uncertain.
Records were destroyed by fire in 1869.
