We receive numerous requests on how to obtain genealogy information for Hendersonville and Sumner County. Here are three web sites that you may find helpful.
Sumner
County, Tennessee
The TNGenWeb project is comprised of an
organized group of volunteers working to create a source location for online
genealogical research for every county in the state of Tennessee. The volunteers
of the TNGenWeb Project are committed to maintaining and enhancing this free
online genealogy project for the benefit of the public good. Please click on the link below to visit the TNGenWeb project for Sumner County. http://www.tngennet.org/sumner/
The Sumner
County, Tennessee Genealogists Companion Page was created by Sumner
County natives whose ancestral roots began in Sumner County in the early 1800's.
Linda Carpenter is a 1965 graduate of Gallatin High School and was instrumental
in the formation of the Sumner County Archives, and she still resides in
Gallatin. Jan Johnson Barnes is a 1967 graduate of Portland High School. She
presently lives in Florida, but visits her parents in Portland often. Both of
these natives share a love of genealogy and history and are proponents of free
research. The records on their site are transcribed from microfilm and original
documents and include: Bible, census, Community, Family Lineages and photos,
obituaries, tax and voter lists. Marriage records are also available as well as
lookups through the year 1947. They are continually adding new records,
presently working on the Civil War Deed Book, transcribed from microfilm. Please
