Jones County was formed in 1807, and Clinton made the County Seat. Recently a fine new Court House has been built at Grays, on the railroad and two miles from old Clinton.
Here the records of the county are all in safe quarters and in a fairly good condition.
In the office of the Ordinary there are four Will Books, before 1850, and several old books of the Minutes of the Inferior Court that contain much interest to middle Georgia families.
Book “A” of Marriage Licenses begins 1812, and has an index, and also those that follow it.

In the Clerk’s office all deeds are in good condition and well indexed.
