Roane County Tennessee Court Minutes Book 1807-1809

<p>The county minutes are the records of the officials of the county in their day to day dealing with the needs of the county. These records give a unique insight into the life and times of the day as well as many persons involved in even minor ways with the county court. Some of the actions refer to deed transfers divorces road orders and thousands of other actions. The original full-name index which refers to the page number in the original document precedes the records.</p><p>The WPA Records are for the most part carbon copies of the original that was typed on onion skin paper during the Depression. Since these records were typed on poor machines by people who did not type well either or read by persons not always sure of the older handwritten material the results are often less than perfect. ... Sometimes there are water stains and burned edges around the paper.</p><p></p><p></p>
