1st Petition to form
Warren County, Tennessee
26 August 1806


          The signers of the Petition, dated August 6, 1806, to form Warren County, TN is from McMinnville at a Milestone by William Womack. The list is in alphabetical order with the number of order of signature on the document; and in the order of the signature. The names are as transcribed in the book. There may be errors, misspelling or typographical from the original petition which can be found in the Tennessee State Library and Archives, Nashville, TN. A photo copy of this document is found in the Magness Memorial Library, McMinnville, TN. The original is very difficult to decipher and the photocopy is even more difficult to decipher. Some of the spellings are easy to discern, but some are impossible. Seventeen names were reported by Mr. Hale as totally illegible.
          We wish to acknowledge our appreciation to The Southern Standard Publishing Company and Womack Printing Company, both of McMinnville, TN for permission to reproduce this list.
