Originals. 2011.2.1 COLLECTION NOTE This collection consists of case files of the Warren County (Kentucky) Equity Court for the years 1802-1856. Equity courts (sometimes called chancery courts) heard lawsuits involving wrongs that could not adequately be remedied in a court of law, or cases requiring a broader application of principles of justice than, for example, a simple award of monetary damages. The bulk of the cases concern debts, estate settlements, and land title disputes, but other matters covered include divorce, dower claims, contractual disputes, and the disposition of property, including slaves. The files typically include such documents as the petition for relief of the plaintiff(s), the answer of the defendant(s), summons to witnesses, depositions, and other evidentiary documents such as bills and receipts, promissory notes, deeds, mortgages, land surveys, and wills. In cases involving estates, the documents often (but not always) name family members and heirs of the deceased. The files are arranged consecutively by case number rather than in strictly chronological order. The box and folder information below summarizes each case by giving the names of the plaintiff(s) and defendant(s), the case number, a date for the case (which may be approximate, as the litigation may have spanned a number of years), the number of items in the file, and a very brief elaboration of the issue and/or parties involved. The most efficient way to search the list is by using a word processing software “find” function to locate a particular name or subject. Note : Many of the documents in the files are damaged, in poor condition and/or difficult to read. This may affect the completeness and accuracy of the information, including the spelling of surnames, in the folder listings below. Documents may also be missing from some case files. In other instances (as indicated in the folder listings), the entire case file is missing and only the names of the parties may be known. Oversized items in the files (such as maps or surveys) have been removed and stored separately in Box 63.

  • SC 379 KENTUCKY Anniversary 175Th.Pdf
    bOVEKNOR EUWAKD T. BUEATHITT REDEDICATION OF JOHN BREATHITT MARKER SEPTEMBER 16, 1967 RUSSELLVILLE, KENTUCKY For Release at 10 a.m. I accepted with pleasure your Invitation to be here today for this part of Western Kentucky's observance of the Commonwealth's 175th anniversary. After all, I have a bit of kinship tie with the Kentucky ° statesman whose marker we rededlcate today. And by my Hopklnsvllle background, I have a geographic tie with this part of the state. Logan County Is celebrating its 175th anniversary, too. You Logan Countlans live In an area that became a county on September 1, 17tf2, just three months after the new Commonwealth of * Kentucky became a state. Most of you know that Logan County is the mother of some 20 counties. In fact, In the period of Kentucky statehood, Logan County then Included all of what Is now regarded as l^estern Kentucky except for the Jackson Purchase. And this county, as you also know, was named for General Benjamin Logan, who founded Logan's Station In 1775. He also was a member of the convention which wrote the first constitution for Kentucky and also a member of the Constitutional Convention of 1779. This Is another reason for the ceremonies here and at Fairview today -- honoring some of the most illustrious names In I- ^ -2- Kentucky's history -- and also serving as Western Kentucky's participa tion in the 175th Anniversary Year. The county seat of Logan County, when established, was known as Logan Court House. Logan County then Included all of the land bounded on the nortn by the Ohio River, on the south by the Tennessee River and west to ttte same river and east to Stanford in Central Kentucky.

Poynter Legislative Research Library Louisiana House of Representatives 1 2 PREFACE This publication is a result of research largely drawn from Journals of the Louisiana House of Representatives and Annual Reports of the Louisiana Secretary of State. Other information was obtained from the book, A Look at Louisiana's First Century: 1804-1903, by Leroy Willie, and used with the author's permission. The David R. Poynter Legislative Research Library also maintains a database of House of Representatives membership from 1900 to the present at http://drplibrary.legis.la.gov . In addition to the information included in this biographical listing the database includes death dates when known, district numbers, links to resolutions honoring a representative, citations to resolutions prior to their availability on the legislative website, committee membership, and photographs. The database is an ongoing project and more information is included for recent years. Early research reveals that the term county is interchanged with parish in many sources until 1815. In 1805 the Territory of Orleans was divided into counties. By 1807 an act was passed that divided the Orleans Territory into parishes as well. The counties were not abolished by the act. Both terms were used at the same time until 1845, when a new constitution was adopted and the term "parish" was used as the official political subdivision. The legislature was elected every two years until 1880, when a sitting legislature was elected every four years thereafter. (See the chart near the end of this document.) The War of 1812 started in June of 1812 and continued until a peace treaty in December of 1814.
