Following is Stephen D. Harris's description of the ledger book and the collection of folded Abstracts listed in it: "An alphabetically tabbed (A-Z) ledger file with handwritten notation[s] which appear to be in the handwriting of Mary Inman. There are entries at each tab with a numerical reference by the entry (For example at Tab A '1 Amblers – Babcock, J. A.') From perusing the entries, the highest numerical reference appears to be '479'. In both of the boxes [Box 2 and Box 3] there are folded Abstracts of Title with a handwritten numerical reference on each and from perusing them they appear to run from '1 to 479'. Total number of abstracts is Four Hundred Seventy Nine (479). "The abstracts of title are mostly in typewritten form although there are several which are handwritten only. They were made in the 1920s to 1950s and the certifying attorneys include those noted above. [T. H. Geddy, Frank Armistead, V. M. Geddy, Ashton Dovell, B. D. Peachy and others] The real properties certified are located in James City County, City of Williamsburg, County of York and other jurisdictions adjoining to the west."

This subseries contains Abstracts of Title that are separate from the Abstracts prepared for Colonial Williamsburg (Box 4) and the collection of Abstracts listed in the ledger book in Box 2, Folder 8.
