TnType's Tennessee Genealogy Links

for a number of reasons, i have spread myself and my TnType pages all over the web. what follows is an annotated list of my sites and a little description of what is available at each one. though i try to connect my sites using sidebar menus and such, my family suggested that i put all the links on one central page, so here goes (and i hope you find it useful - especially for your roane co, tn area research):

tennessee county formation maps for census work

tennessee county formation maps and formation information - helpful for census and migration use - can be found as ani-maps online | here |

with the map on this page, you can follow a county year to year with three different kinds of county outline maps:

1. plain outline maps can be shown with changing boundaries for each county from census to census. roane county was established in 1803 and can be followed from 1810 forward, for instance.

2. outline maps of any census year with an outline map of the county during the previous census as an overlay, permitting you to see additions or subtractions to the boundaries.

3. outline maps of any census year with an outline map of the county during the next census as an overlay, permitting you to see future additions or subtractions to the county's boundaries (similar to #2 above). click on 1840 map, for instance, to see the changes in roane county's boundaries between the 1840 and 1850 censuses.

near the bottom of the page, there's a quick recap of census information for tennessee - which federal censuses are available - which years and which counties.
