Henderson Co. TN
Mr. Jonathan Kennon Thompson Smith of Jackson has published seven genealogical miscellanies for Henderson County. He wishes to share this information as widely as possible and has granted permission for these web pages to be created. We thank Mr. Smith for his generosity. Copyright, Jonathan K. T. Smith, 2001
This index, prepared by Jonathan Smith, roughly alphabetical, strives for accuracy in rendering names but when names are represented by initials only, some letters may be misread, especially when a clerk has been hasty/sloppy in writing the names and too a name may be rendered one way in one record and another way in yet another record.
In this listing the names of the will-makers are given, followed by the page(s) the will is recorded on, then the year of execution (written), then the year of probate. In the will book the probate dates are not given; these have to be taken from the original wills themselves or from notations in the county court minute books.
