The '''West Tennessee Heritage Study Center''' (WTHSC) focuses on the genealogy, social history, cultures, and family history of Tennessee and its counties. Their collection includes all of Tennessee but is more in-depth for northwest Tennessee. They also collect newspapers, regional county records, and have federal censuses for Tennessee 1780–1930. Their WTHSC Index is an important resource.<ref>[http://www.utm.edu/departments/special_collections/wthsc.php West Tennessee Heritage Study Center] in ''University of Tennessee Martin'' (accessed 5 November 2015).</ref> | The '''West Tennessee Heritage Study Center''' (WTHSC) focuses on the genealogy, social history, cultures, and family history of Tennessee and its counties.
