DeKalb County, located in Middle Tennessee, was formed in 1837 out of parts of Cannon, Jackson, Warren, and Wilson counties. This book contains abstracts of the deeds starting at the creation of the county and continuing all the way through 1885.
Deeds are GREAT source for genealogical research due to the many and varied family members that are mentioned. Not only will the reader find the deed transaction itself, but often times such things as: marriages, relinquishment of dower, divisions of family farms among heirs, remarriages of widows are just a few of the matters you can anticipate finding within records of deeds.
