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.
"The following pages contain records of apprenticeships in the counties of West Tennessee from the earliest surviving records until the practice became uncommon, usually in the late 1870's or 1880's"--Introduction.
Genealogists and other historical researchers have valued the first two editions of this work, often referred to as the genealogist's bible."" The new edition continues that tradition. Intended as a handbook and a guide to selecting, locating, and using appropriate primary and secondary resources, The Source also functions as an instructional tool for novice genealogists and a refresher course for experienced researchers. More than 30 experts in this field--genealogists, historians, librarians, and archivists--prepared the 20 signed chapters, which are well written, easy to read, and include many helpful hints for getting the most out of whatever information is acquired. Each chapter ends with an extensive bibliography and is further enriched by tables, black-and-white illustrations, and examples of documents. Eight appendixes include the expected contact information for groups and institutions that persons studying genealogy and history need to find. ""
