The first court for the new county was held on 9 May 1735.

The "PHOTO" uploaded regarding the first mention of Bryan Fannin being in Deed Book 19, page 425 of Montgomery Co., Va. is inaccurate. There is no such Deed Book 19 in Ficastle Co., Va. or Montgomery Co., Va. They deed books named by alphabet, not by numbers. Also, the notation that Bryan received land in that area around 1735-1738 is historically incorrect. The area was not settled until after these dates
