Questions about family relationships may be answered by paternity suits; relatives may be found when orphans are given guardians or impoverished folk are provided with care-givers. For example: \"Richd M Jones allowed $36 each for maintaining for one year Jno, Robt, and Mary Jordan minor orphans of Seth B Jordan decd.\" These minutes contain all of the county court business for the years 1816-1828, including divorces, administration of estates, deeds of conveyance, debts, and more. Presiding officials, names of jurors, and names of parties involved in the court proceedings are also included. The witness docket names the principal parties in each case, the witness, and the number of days and miles they spent travelling to court.

The original index to the book listed each bride and groom in separate columns. Later a new index was added that merged the two list. Finally, there is an index to the officials given in each marriage. As with most all of the marriage records for Tennessee, you will get the names of the bride\/groom and official. The two different dates are usually given, when the license is issued by the court and then when the marriage actually took place.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWPA Records\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e(?), 2016, 8.5\" x 11\", paper, full name index, 70 pp.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eISBN: 9780788485022\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e101E-TN1422\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Heritage Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41553761402998,"sku":"101E-TN1422","price":15.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1654\/3033\/files\/101e-tn1422-1500px.png?v=1777148878"},{"product_id":"101e-tn0227","title":"Dickson County, Tennessee Marriages, 1817-1856","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis book sets forth, alphabetically first by groom and then by bride, the 1636 marriages.
