Tennessee genealogists and historians will revere this text. Its
information has been taken from the original Davidson County deed
books. The work includes transcripts of deeds and new indexes of
the data. Such a text as this, however, was needed because the
original index is arranged solely by the names each transaction was
registered under. In most cases, many more names lie within the
body of the document. The author of this book has endeavored to
make every recorded name accessible, via index, to aid the
researcher. These records identify family members (and
relationships) for both white and black families in Davidson County
between 13 February 1829 and 27 August 1835, a time when the census
identified only the white "head of household;" a time when many
wills identified only the husband, leaving his property "to my
beloved wife and children;" a time when there was no other record
for the slave family. The book's index listing refers to the
original deed book page entry. Included are the deed records, whose
inventories of personal property give a truly unique picture of the
society of the day. Indexes cover first and last names, slave
names, and places.
