	Isle of Wight County, Virginia - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Isle of Wight County is a county located in the South Hampton Roads region of the state of Virginia in the United States.

	History, Isle of Wight County (Virginia)
		The original boundaries of the county of Worrosquoyacke, or Isle of Wight, were: Northerly, by Lawnes Creek; Easterly, by James River as far as the plantation of Richard Hayes, formerly John Howard's; the southern boundary by certain creeks to the head of Colonel Pitt's Creek (this proved somewhat uncertain); and westerly into the woods indefinitely.
		County Courts were established in 1751 by the appointment of eight Justices of the Peace, and four of whom could act and compose a court, the oldest in commission presiding.
		The County Courts have long been a distinctive feature of Virginia, and the meeting of the people on court days was, in a measure, an education for them, for, in the early days, with no newspapers and few post offices, dissemination of news was meager and slow other than by intercourse with those better informed.

	Benn's Grant clears big hurdle -- dailypress.com
		ISLE OF WIGHT — - The proposed Benn's Grant development got the Planning Commission's stamp of approval Tuesday in a meeting that ran past midnight and into Wednesday.
		County officials years ago designated small areas of the county as development service districts, where future development would be contained.
		O'Briant said the developer also addressed the county's concerns by stretching out build-out to reduce the impact on county services, paying more to offset the costs of the development and increasing the number of affordable, or work-force, houses to 17 percent.
