Researching Families in
Green County
Green County was formed
in 1793 from
Lincoln
County and
Nelson
County. Once one of the largest counties, it is now one of the smallest. Green County once
encompassed all or part of these counties:
Adair [formed 1801],
Barren [formed 1798], Cumberland
[formed 1796],
Hart [formed 1819],
Metcalfe [formed 1860],
Monroe
[formed 1820], and
Taylor [formed 1848]. Researchers should
search all of these counties for families that overlap these time periods. Don't miss the books on the
Green County Books for Sale
page. Marriage books that list Green County marriages from before 1800 until 1900 can be found there. There are excellent books focusing on family groups. Barbara Wright's books feature an almost complete abstraction of records
found at the Green County Courthouse.
