Description
The collection consists of loose papers numbering several thousand official court records of Jackson County, Georgia. Included in these records are bonds, petitions, fi fas, pleas, and wills. Jackson County, in northeast Georgia, is the state's twenty-second county, created in 1796 from part of Franklin County on land formerly held by the Cherokee and Muscogee (Creek) nations. It was named for James Jackson, who was a general in the Revolutionary War. Jackson County lost territory when portions of it went to the formation of Barrow, Clarke, Madison, and Walton counties.
