Giles County, TN, History & Genealogy

The Giles County History & Genealogy page is for sharing information, research, data, family stories! I am the creator and administrator of this community page.

The page is not affiliated with any organization or governmental entity, but please note that the Genealogical Research Room operated by the Giles County Historical Society and the Giles County Archives, a function of country government, are excellent local resources for research into family and community history. I am a lover of history and have conducted extensive historical and genealogical research on Giles County and my family lines. I am happy to help if I can, and I will be glad to post your questions, photos, documents, etc., to share with our growing group. Please email them to me at claudiajohnsonwriter@gmail.com with any information you wish to share publicly. I am the only one who can post, and rest assured this is simply because the page would be overrun with spam if I opened it up. This is an inclusive group where sharing and conversation is most welcome. Some of the posts on here are created by a Giles County resident, Carmen Brown, who has been posting old photos and "history nuggets" for several years. He has generously allowed us to share these on this community page.
