Troup County Court Records Scanning Project

We are delighted to have received one of the first NHPRC scanning grants to post 19th century court records to the web. We will share details about the each step in the project, from flattening documents to posting on the web. We are excited to be working with the Digital Library of Georgia. We are proud to be a pilot scanning project. Our goal is to move from having a few users per year to having many. We will try to update this blog every week or so. Stay tuned! Kaye Minchew, Director
