Another great Tennessee site

A few days ago I mentioned the very positive experience I had with the Knox Co Archives. This morning I came across the site for the Tennessee State Library and Archives and there is a page with some great general info for state-wide research, including a few explanations of exceptions in some of the larger cities, including Knoxville. No matter where in the state your work takes you though, you should always check to see if the individual county has it's own Archives, Historical Society, etc. and check their holdings. Generally, you can find the same info that's available from the State and much much more. Here's the link, hopefully it will be a good general guide for anyone with some roots in TN:
