The Goochland County's early records are in much better shape than Hanover and some neighbors.

See the list at LVA's
http://www.lva.virginia.gov/whatwehave/local/county_formation/index.htm

And a very fine study based in large measure on these records is Maureen K.
Conklin, "Power in the Piedmont: Litigation and Political Culture in Eighteenth-Century Central Virginia," (PhD. Diss., University of Wisconsin-Madison, 1998).
