I've run across several general references that court records from Warwick 
County, Virginia were destroyed during the Civil War.  What I would like to 
see is a definitive reference to an actual date, whether or not the records 
were virtually destroyed after a fire while solders were evacuating the 
area, whether the courthouse was torched, or something of the like.  Does 
anyone have a reference I could use?  Thanks.  Wes Pippenger.
