Nancy and Craighead researcher---Even though the reference books don't often mention it--part of Smith Co became Dekalb County, TN in 1837.

My problem is that I find them on 1820, not on 1830(not a one) then back on in 1840 forward. By them not being on just that one year makes me think they were missed. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Judy ADAMS" <adams1111@bellsouth.net> To: <TNSMITH-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Friday, June 24, 2005 1:12 PM Subject: Re: [TNSMITH] Craighead help on census > Nancy and Craighead researcher---Even though the reference books don't often mention it--part of Smith Co became Dekalb County, TN in 1837. > Look there also.---Judy > From: "Nancy" <searcher2@tds.net> > Date: 2005/06/24 Fri AM 10:32:06 EDT > To: TNSMITH-L@rootsweb.com > Subject: [TNSMITH] Craighead help on census > > Smith county had several changes in its boundaries: > "Since its organization in 1799, seven other counties were organized from land that was originally part of Smith County.
