Tennessee Court Records: Difference between revisions

Acts of the state legislature are similar to court records. Legislative acts were often required to legitimize a child, obtain a divorce, or to receive an appointment for public service. The Tennessee State Library and Archives has created an index to names that appear in these acts covering the years 1796 to 1850.
