Marilyn,

The Halifax County chancery records have been processed and indexed in the Halifax clerk's office thanks to  grant funds awarded by the Library of Virginia's Circuit Court Records Preservation program (CCRP). While the records are currently still in Halifax, plans are being made to transfer them to the Library of Virginia for digital scanning. I am hoping this transfer will happen in the next several months so that we can begin this project. Hope this information helps.

I have a question about the Halifax records and their prospective availability on the Chancery Index.
