Warren County (Va.) Treasurer Records, 1876-1913. Local government records collection, Warren County. The Library of Virginia, Richmond, Va. 23219.
These items came to the Library of Virginia in a shipment of court papers from Warren County.
Warren County was named for Joseph Warren, the revolutionary patriot who sent Paul Revere and William Dawes on their famous rides and who was killed at the Battle of Bunker Hill. The county was formed from Frederick and Shenandoah counties in 1836.
The Constitution of 1869 placed the sheriff's tax collection function in the new office of treasurer, who was both the cashier and the bookkeeper of the county. During the township period, (1870-1875) the township collector and clerk also had treasurer's functions; later the county treasurer's duties were expanded to include the township officer's activities.
Warren County (Va.) Treasurer Records, 1876-1913, includes Delinquent Taxes; Warrants; Account Book and loose papers; Delinquent Real Estate Sold for Non-Payment of Taxes and Levies; and Record of Delinquent Lands.
Additional Warren County Records can be found on microfilm at the Library of Virginia. Consult "A Guide to Virginia County and City Records on Microfilm."
