This fabulous work is a county-by-county guide to the genealogical records and resources at the Tennessee State Library and Archives in Nashville. Based largely on the Tennessee county records microfilmed by the LDS Genealogical Library, it is an inventory of extant county records and their dates of coverage. For each county the following data is given: formation, county seat, names and addresses of libraries and genealogical societies, published records (alphabetical by author), W.P.A. typescript records, microfilmed records (LDS), manuscripts, and church records. The LDS microfilm covers almost every record that could be used by the genealogist, from vital records to optometry registers, from wills and inventories to school board minutes. There also is a comprehensive list of statewide reference works.

This Richard was the father of the notorious Moses Kirkland who turned Tory and is probably the most written about Kirkland there is. Over the years we have collected many Kirkland records. We are sure that some of these definitely belong to this family, but we have many that may or may not. Mrs. Green suggested that we compile our records into a book to share with others and call it a source book ..."--Foreword (leaf after t.p., v. 1).
