Vicki, I have posted your inquiry to two Cherokee County mail lists. The public library has a small but useful genealogy corner. Its phone number is on the AlGenWeb Cherokee County web site. Also contact Ms. Jane Dodson whose e-mail address is under look-ups on the same web page, and who may direct you to cemetery lists and marriage records. Has anyone on this list done research at the court house itself? I'd like to know, along with Vicki, how much cooperation is given to genealogy researchers by the court house staff. It is my impression that when researching property transfers, there is *nothing published,* so one *must* go to the court house. Am I correct?
