Tennessee Tidbits 1778-1914 Volume I

This work is an absolute gold mine for anyone who is researching the state of Tennessee. The compiler has gone to the Court Minutes to dig out all the gems of genealogical information. In many cases this is the only record that exists to show birth dates death divorce naturalization and much more. Most of the court minutes have no index or at best only a partial index so it took a page-by-page reading to find this information. Included in Volume One are records from Blount Davidson Dickson Fayette Giles Greene Hardin Haywood Hickman Humphreys Lincoln Putnam Rutherford Washington and Williamson Counties. If you don't have ancestors in these counties this book can still help you. There are references to people in many other counties and in many states. They show relationships and migration paths. This series encompasses the dates 1778-1914 but individual volumes may not contain records for the entire time span.
