RECORD GROUP 3: CIRCUIT COURT CLERK RECORDS GUIDE

1 RECORD GROUP 3: CIRCUIT COURT CLERK RECORDS GUIDE Date span: 1808-2009 and undated 882 linear feet (390 boxes, 460 s, and 1 map folder) Historical Note In 1809, Circuit Court was established in Tennessee to replace the Superior Court of Law and Equity (Record Group 18). The state was then divided into five judicial circuits. was included in the First Judicial Circuit. A judge held court annually in each county in his circuit. With the creation of Circuit Court, all criminal cases were moved to that court. Prior to that time, some criminal cases were heard in the Court of Pleas and Quarter Sessions. Circuit Court held the same jurisdiction in civil, equity, and appeal cases as the earlier Superior Court. This process of a judge holding court on a circuit between counties continues to the present time. The Circuit Court Clerk has responsibility for administering the Circuit Court, Criminal Court, General Sessions Court, as well as Juvenile Court records. This is an elected office with terms of office of four years. The following have served as Circuit Court Clerk for : James V. Anderson (1810-1836); John Ryland (1836-1848); Worley Embree (1848-1852); John W. Crawford (1852-1861); E. Armstrong (1864-1866); James E. Deakins (1966-1870); C. Wheeler (1870-1874); S. S. Luttrell (1874-1878); W. E. Mathes (1878-1886); S. H. L. (Lewis) Cooper (1886-1898); Foy W. Dulaney (1898-1910); J. L. Hilbert (1910-1918); Will H. Jones (1918-1930); Paul H. Wofford (1930-1934); Jack H. Knight (1934-1938); J. Fletcher Skipworth (1938-1946); Coy R. Trivette (1946-1954); Scott Garvin (1954-1958); Tommy Dillow (1958-1982); Don Squibb (1982-2002); and Karen Guinn (2002-present). Note: Some records found in this record group were transferred to East Tennessee State University for preservation in 1958. Beginning in the late 1970s, the Archives of Appalachia there processed some of these records. In August 2016, the records were returned to the Archives. Some boxes and folders may still be labeled W.C.C.R. ( Court Records) or acc. 18 (accession collection number). Any boxes or s part of this processing at ETSU are cross-referenced in the Note column of this guide in case a researcher needs to make a connection to records used when housed at the Archives of Appalachia. This will be indicated in the note field by A of A and the specific box or number assigned by that archive at the time of processing. Materials may no longer be in the order found at the Archives of Appalachia. Scope and Content Circuit Court handles both civil lawsuits and criminal cases. Originally, the same judge heard both types of cases, but, in modern times, there are separate judges elected, with the Circuit Court judges hearing civil cases and Criminal Court judges hearing criminal cases. The records for these courts are thus divided into separate sub-groups. Records cover from the beginning of the court in the early 19 th century into the early 21 st century, though the majority of records end in the 1960s. Cases involve civil suits, land disputes, adultery and

2 divorce, debts, damages, murder, larceny, assault and battery, and numerous other felonies, misdemeanors, and disputes settled by the court. Among the record types found in the record group are bond books, case files, dockets, minute books, and correspondence. Note: Circuit Court Clerk records housed in the Archive Annex are not included in this guide. Researchers seeking these records or records for years later than those found in this guide should contact the office of Circuit Court Clerk at the Justice Center, 108 W. Jackson Blvd., in Jonesborough.

Circuit Court Clerk 8 Record Group 3 Sub-Group 3.2: Circuit Court Records, 1808-2009 and undated 715 linear feet (384 boxes and 215 s) Sub-Group Description This sub-group is composed of all Circuit Court case work not involving criminal court cases. It is the most extensive part of Record Group 3. In the early history of the court, the circuit court judge handled both civil and criminal cases and, thus, both types of cases can be intermixed in the records, which are not easily separated (for example, the same of minutes may include both types of cases). This sub-group contains just civil cases (where it was possible to separate civil causes from criminal ones), though in some instances criminal cases may also be found in Sub-Group 3.2. Sub-Group 3.2 is arranged in the following order: Series A: Case Files, 1810-1992 and undated Series B: Dockets, 1808-1993 Sub-series B.1: Alimony Dockets, 1821-1961 Sub-series B.2: Cost Dockets, 1826-1961 Sub-series B.3: Enrolling Dockets, 1810-1875 Sub-series B.4: Execution Dockets, 1808-1948 Sub-series B.5: Grand Jury Dockets, 1883-1984 Sub-series B.6: Judgement Over Docket Workhouse Cases, 1947-1958 Sub-series B.7: Jury Dockets, 1875-1961 Sub-series B.8: Minute Dockets, 1810-1877 Sub-series B.9: Non-Jury Dockets, 1875-1962 Sub-series B.10: Retired Dockets, 1908-1993 Sub-series B.11: Revenue Dockets, 1889-1938 Sub-series B.12: Rule Dockets, 1808-1958 Sub-series B.13: Tax Dockets, 1888 Sub-series B.14: Trial Dockets (Civil and Civil & Criminal combined), 1871-1971

Prior to the establishment of a separate Criminal Court judge to hear these cases exclusively, the Circuit Court judge handled both types of cases, so in many of the boxes, the cases are intermixed. This is true of boxes 10-114 (as originally numbered by the Archives of Appalachia at ETSU). Case files in boxes 10-68 are arranged by case file number. Case files in boxes 69-72 are arranged alphabetically by the defendant s last name. Case files in boxes 73-114 are arranged in chronological order. Case files in boxes 115-126 relate strictly to civil cases. Some cases continued for a number of years, and, therefore, records may extend well past the initial date when the case was first filed. Among the types of cases are those involving debt, divorce, damages, land disputes, assault and battery, tippling, lewdness, murder, robbery, larceny, forgery and transporting liquor among many other civil disputes and criminal actions. Documents include petitions, bonds, correspondence, warrants, decrees, answers, depositions, subpoenas, etc. Case files are permanent records. Note: records in boxes following Box 126 are currently unavailable for research.
