Gathered by WPA ** Workers, the records found in this 8.5″x11″ oversized publication
may well contain the ‘missing link’ you are desperately searching for. Packed with bible,
family, and tombstone records, it’s a virtual genealogical goldmine for Putnam
County, Tennessee descendants. Although the records are now scattered between the
State Archives, various Public and Private Libraries and other collections, this volume
contains all available data.
** WPA Workers
During the Great Depression in the early 1900s, many Americans were given a “job” by
the United States Government to support their family. One such “job” was transcribing
early court, family, Bible, and cemetery records as well as other local records.
Original versions were typed on onion skin paper with “x” number of carbon copies.
Although the State Archives owns the vast majority of ‘first’ or typed copy, carbons
have circulated for years but are now scattered. Often the typing is not the best
and is difficult to read but these valuable records still constitute one of the
best sources of information for Tennessee Counties. In many cases, these are all
that remain of the original as many county records have been lost. WPA records are
generally full text transcription: much larger in scope than an abstraction or summary.
