Alabama records/ compiled by Pauline Jones Gandrud

Notes

Most volumes are reprints of original unpublished works compiled between 1932-ca1969.

Kathleen Paul Jones was involved in the compiling of the original records.

It should be noted that Mrs. Gandrud did selective genealogy in her volumes. She did not copy and include in her volumes every record that was available. In some instances she abstracted parts of certain records. If the researcher does not find mention of a particular ancestor in these records, this does not mean that the ancestor is not to be found in other parts of that county's legal records or even in the specific record she was abstracting.

Includes probate, vital, cemetery, census, military, land and property, and court records. Also includes extracts from newspapers and other genealogical data.
