Equity Court Abstracts - Liber JS-9

These are abstracts from Equity Court Records of Frederick County, Maryland, Liber JS-9; many times providing family data on the defendant and sometimes on persons not mentioned on the docket. Some of the listings are quite informative while others, being dismissed, may only have the date and name of plantiff and defendant. However, the cases brought before the judge consisted of sworn testimony and each one holds a story. Perhaps you will find a story connected to your search.
