Index to Early Tennessee Wills and Administrations 1779-1861


Book Description

This invaluable index, by two distinguished genealogists, has long been regarded as one of the most important sourcebooks in Tennessee genealogy. It documents over 41,500 entries covering all 62 counties for which antebellum estate records have survived. It is arranged by surname, so the entire list of wills of any given family in the state can be found under one heading. With few exceptions, the names in the index were taken from microfilmed copies of the original county records.
