Liberty County, Georgia

Liberty, one of the original eight counties, was formed in 1777 from the Parish of St. John. The old Court House at Hincsville is a wooden structure but the offices of the Ordinary and Clerk of the Superior Court are in a small detached brick building, in which the vaults are sufficiently large to keep the records. These records have suffered some from careless handling in the past, but now they are better protected and only age and use are responsible for their tender condition. As the county authorities are waking up on the subject probably some of the oldest will soon be transcribed. Will book "A " 1790 to 1823, of about 250 pages, contains 110 wills, and in books "B" and "C" are about 70 wills prior to 1850. All marriage records are in one book, beginning 1806 and indexed as to the names of men.
In the office of the Clerk of the Court the records begin with the year 1777, and are fairly well preserved.
