These court minutes begin with the creation of the county in 1792. Knox County was created out of Greene and Hawkins and was one of the many Eastern Tennessee counties that saw a great influx of settlers migrating West. In these minutes of pleas and quarters sessions you will find appointments of county officials, appointed administrators, marked public roads, granting of licenses to "ordinaries", taxes being levied, civil actions of a wide variety and persons being tried for offenses against the peace and dignity of the State.
