QUESTION ....When Jim puts things on the genealogy site like a sale of property or will and it gives the book and page number is that all the information or are we suppose to send for more on the subject? If there isn't much more on the subject it wouldn't be worth it. But if it is worth it how and who would you contact for the rest of the article? When a Stewart Co. marriage is listed are there real marriage license? Sorry, but if I can't ask you then there's no hope for me. Thanks Doris
Dear Doris, Hello, I believe, but could be correct, that the deeds listed in the Stewart County site are abstracted and not the entire deed as it is originally. I say that because it does not include all the mundane descriptions of the property. As for marriage records, yes there are actual, original marriage records available. However, at the present time only the marriages from 1848 to the present are on microfilm. We used to have the marriages from 1838, but the originals were stolen from the courthouse and then the microfilm was stolen from the library. The State Archives does not have them on microfilm because the original were stolen and could not be microfilmed again. Hope this helps.
