Synopsis "Jefferson County, Georgia, Inferior Court Minutes, November 1807-January 1814 (in English)"
Jefferson county's Inferior Court, made up of five justices of the peace for the county, tried any civil case except those involving title to land. The Inferior Court had jurisdiction over county business matters, such as care for the poor, building and maintaining the courthouse and jails, building and maintaining roads and bridges, issuing liquor licenses, nominating justices of the peace, performing naturalizations, appointing guardians, authorized indentures, and maintaining a register of wills. The Clerk of the Inferior Court kept minutes of the foregoing proceedings--every one of which places individuals in Jefferson County at a particular point in time--and those minutes comprise the basis for this series by Michael Ports. The fourth volume in the series is derived from Minute Books 5 and 6, and goes from November 2, 1807, through January 22, 1814.
