Minutes of the Johnson County, Tennessee Claims Commission 1868
The record of losses (or claimed losses) by Johnson County, Tennessee citizens during the American Civil War. Johnson County was highly Unionist in political sentiments, but it was garrisoned by Confederate troops for most of the war, thus a high proportion of claims by "Rebels." It should be noted that all these claims were approved by a County Claims Commission, which was composed of Lafayette Jones, Daniel Slemp and R. L. Wilson. This commission operated under a Tennessee law passed on February 19, 1868. This record was completed in the spring and summer of 1868. It should also be noted that all of the claims presented below were approved by the County Board.
Items included in this record are the date, the claim number, name of the claimant, the total amount claimed.
