Overview

By: Helen & Timothy Marsh, Pub. 1992, reprinted 2022, 287 pages, Index, ISBN #0-89308-461-1. Davidson County was formed in 1783 from Indian lands in Middle Tennessee. It is the parent county to: Bedford, Cheatham, Marshall, Maury, Rutherford, part of Robertson, Sumner and Williamson Counties. The three volumes of land deed records by the Marsh's contain the names of approximately 45,000 of the earliest settlers of this area of Middle Tennessee. Each is filled with original North Carolina Military Grants issued to soldiers who served in the North Carolina Continental Line. This vast Military Reservation encompassed a 55 mile strip that covered all of the Northern half of Middle Tennessee. Deeds are one of the favorite research tools of the genealogists due to the wide variety of family connections found within. Not only will the reader find the deed transcription itself, but often times such things as: marriages, relinquishments of dower, divisions of family farms among heirs, remarriages of widows are just a few of the matters you can anticipate finding within records of deeds.
