| *Note that Albemarle County was formed in 1744 from Goochland County. Also, Amherst and Buckingham Counties were formed from Albemarle County in 1761 and Fluvanna County was formed from Albemarle in 1777. In tracing Albemarle County ancestors examining records from these other counties could be beneficial. | |||||||
