These records are taken from three papers, all published in Knoxville, covering the period from 1809 through 1834. The three papers are: Wilsons Knoxville Gazette, Knoxville Register, and Enquirer. Gleaning from the pages of these papers are articles pertaining to Rhea County during this very early time period. Much of this information did not get into the counties history which was written in 1990 due to the fact they were not located at the time. Some of the articles are copied directly from the paper and some are type-copied. They are arranged by chronological dates and not subject matter.
Example from this volume:
