Hampshire County was formed from the Virginia counties of Augusta and Frederick in 1754.

The contents of Mrs. Horton's abstracts range over orders to bind orphaned and poor children (sometimes mentioning complete families), grand jury lists, indictments, commissions, overseers of the roads, ordinary licenses, suits, oaths of office, militia lists, and more.
