The Handy Book for Genealogists indicates that marriage, probate, and land records are available for Red River Co., TX from 1835. Is this accurate? Are there pre-Republic of Texas records available for this county? Does anyone know if JP (Justice of the Peace) Dockets are available for research in the Red River Co. courthouse? Thanks, TKH
