City Directories are an excellent resource for the researcher of family history and
genealogy. They help to locate the
exact address where persons lived, which frequently include the names of spouses and children,
as well as the occupation. Many old directories did not survive, and so it is always a real
thrill when one is found.

preserved over a 40-year period. It contains traced genealogies, probate records, confederate deaths,
revolutionary war pensions, cemeteries, obituaries, marriages, census, cherokees, births,
school graduates, etc.
