King William County, located in the great state of Virginia, was officially formed in 1702 from a part of King and Queen County. The county was named in honor of King William III of England. Situated in the eastern part of the state, the county lies on the Middle Peninsula and covers approximately 286 square miles.
The area was initially inhabited by the Pamunkey and Mattaponi Native American tribes, whose reservations still exist in the county today. English settlers began to arrive in the 17th century, and the county's economy was primarily based on agriculture, particularly tobacco cultivation.
