Jefferson County, Tennessee Will Book 3, 1826-1833
Toni Jollay Prevost
Jefferson County is located in mid-east Tennessee and thus has travelers from western North Carolina and upper east Tennessee/Virginia. This was a cross roads to the migration path westward. This will book reflect on those who were here at the time as they left a paper trail. You can expect to find here the wills, settlements and inventories of those estates given. Sometimes, the will is stated and many years later the final settlement is accomplished.

House & lots in Russellville. Amounts paid to A. Austin, Dan D. Andrew, Mary Donaldson, Jones & Greenway, Walter Evans, John Wester. Etc. etc.
