Superior Court of Law and Equity Madison County Mississippi Territory 1811 - 1819 I am currently transcribing this very old and valuable book which records the cases coming before the highest court in the Mississippi Territory. This book evidently records just the cases when the court was sitting in Equity. The cases when the Soperior court was sitting in Law are located in the Mississippi State Archives in Jackson, Mississippi. The book's pages are in poor condition, so this will be a slow process. I also have all the other records to work on and these take precedence. If you find it interesting, take a peek every month or two for additions.

Did you know that the word ALABAMA means "Here we rest"??....but the migrating indians whose chief first uttered the cry did not have reference to inertia, and the term has been translated "Here we stop and make our home...it is a goodly land...we have found no better....Here we rest".
