I would think it would be in court minute books.

Greetings! 

I am looking for any information on where I  might look to find the court 
case of Elizabeth BLACKWOOD and William  LAWRENCE. 
The court case took place Sept. 1806 in Shenandoah County,  VA.   The 
information I have is that Elizabeth BLACKWOOD  committed assault on 
William LAWRENCE.  She was sentenced to 2 years  in jail plus a 1,500 
fine.  I found this information on a personal  web-site and have not 
been able to confirm the information. I contacted  the Virginia State 
Library, and they did not find this case in the  chancery records.  Would 
an assault case even be in the chancery  records?  Any information or 
ideas on where I can search will be  greatly appreciated.
