CANNON COUNTY, TN - COURT - Index of County Court Clerk Settlements, Administrators' Exec. & Guardianships --------------¤¤¤¤¤¤-------------- Roll #12, Tennessee State Library and Archives May 1859 - March 1868 --------------------------------------------------- Index The intent of this index is to assist Cannon County researchers in locating court records. The index in the court record book is not always as specific as it could be and at times is incorrect. The record entries were made by many individuals and the varying handwriting is at times is difficult to read. The records entered in this time period can also involve other entries in other record books kept during the same time period so keep that in mind when you are researching. If the entry you are looking for is not included in this record it may very well be found in another. Also, the alpha listing in most cases lists the administrators name instead of the deceased party or other party involved. The record you are looking for could be included in this record but indexed improperly. --------------------------------------------------- $10.00 Record of Mr. B.
