Here's another courthouse-related question:
 
    Looking in the "Defendant Index to Judgments,  1906-1934," I found 
lists of names (alphabetically arranged, by last name, then  first) with a 
column for "Docket" numbers and a column page numbers,  as references, with no 
dates. After searching for some volume named "Dockets"  and finding none, I 
asked for help. Nothing was found and it was concluded that  I should go to 
Richmond to find the records.
    The Library of Virginia, apparently, does not have  the records either, 
and I was referred to the State Records Center, which won't  be open until 
next week.
    Meanwhile, I'd like to have an idea of just what I  am looking for. 
What information would be contained in a "Docket" book or  record? Is it simply 
a schedule of court proceedings or would it contain  information about 
individual cases themselves?
 
THANKS !
