King George county was created in 1721 from Richmond County, VA. In 1777, King George & Stafford county changed portions of the boundaries with each other. And in 1778, King George again had property transferred to and from Westmoreland County, VA. King George County has suffered many missing records and the wills were thought to be part of the missing records until the author discovered them and returned them in 1977 after he transcribed them. Wills are a favorite source for research for the family historian due to the many names being mentioned within them.
