'This county, next to Elizabeth City, is the smallest in the State. It was one of the orig- inal shires and was, when formed in 1634, call- ed Warwick River, but was changed to War- wick in 1642. It lies on the north side of James river, with York county on the north, Elizabeth City on the east, and James City on the west, and is comprised in a narrow strip of country extending from Newport News nearly to Williamsburg, in James City county. The Chesapeake and Ohio Railway traverses the county east and west, and has its eastern terminus at Newport News. The lands are fertile, producing very fine crops, and the trade in oysters is an important feature of the county.
