		in the colony the court should recommend three persons “as they shall think most fit and able” to the governor, who was empowered to select one of the nominees to be sheriff for the next two years.
		To remedy this evil it was provided that no county court should recommend to the governor any person who had served two years successively, unless he could produce a certificate from the treasurer of his district saying that he had fully accounted for and delivered all public taxes he had received as sheriff.

		These colonial governors were appointed by the king to work with and keep in line the elected colonial assemblies.

		By 1774, colonial militias were drilling openly in several colonies, and the governors and royally appointed officials of the colonies were being forced to flee by mobs.

	Leslie V. Brock: The Colonial Currency, Prices, and Exchange Rates (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
		Colonial paper currency, generally called bills of credit, was issued on two bases: on the credit of the colony supported by tax funds, and on loan.
		In the case of New England and the Middle colonies, where direct trade between the colonies and Britain was at a minimum, it was necessary for the colonies to have recourse to a roundabout trade to procure the necessary bills of exchange and specie to pay their adverse balances with Britain.
		In a colony where a specie standard prevailed and bills of credit were not issued as war finance measures, as was the case in Massachusetts between 1750 and 1775, the price of exchange fluctuated in harmony with that in New York and Pennsylvania, but the fluctuations were not so great.

	Forfeiture in England and Colonial America
		By the seventeenth century crimes that were considered felonies included murder, manslaughter, witchcraft, larceny, abduction of an heiress with intent to marry her, forgery of a deed or testimonial, transportation of a sheep, and malicious cutting of another man's tongue or his eyes [Veall, 1970:2].
		Some were royal colonies (such as Virginia) thought to be under direct control of the Crown; others were chartered colonies (e.g., Massachusetts) in which extensive governing rights were given to a charter company; still others were proprietary colonies (e.g., Maryland and Pennsylvania) in which a single owner had been granted vast authority [Hall, 1989:14].
		This created a difficult situation, because slaves, in many of the colonies, were considered chattel and could, theoretically, be included as part of a forfeiture if their owner were convicted and attained for a capital felony.

		Not really, since it was simply the colonial legislature of Virginia (actually called the House of Burgesses) and you would already know about the legislatures colonists had been allowed to elect for over a hundred and fifty years before the Revolution.
		Colonial governors (appointed by the king's government), judges, and other officials had always before been paid by the legislatures and, to a great extent, could not afford to offend the legislatures too much.

	The Colonial Virginia Register
		From 1652 to 1660 the Governors were elected by the House of Burgesses, though there is some reason to believe that their choice may have been influenced by the wishes of the Parliamentary authorities, or of Cromwell.
		The Councillors were the Governor's advisers in executive matters, and patents, etc., are stated to be issued with their "advice and consent." They constituted the General Court -the supreme court of the Colony and also had legislative functions as members of the upper house of the Assembly, corresponding somewhat to our senate.
		The colonial almanacs (which were always published late in the year before that whose date they bear-as is the case now) contain lists which have in the main been found to be very accurate, of the members of the House in existence at the time when the almanac was printed.
