Monroe County, located in lower east Tennessee, was established shortly after the signing of the Calhoun Treaty by the Cherokee in 1819, which relinquished the area to the United S tates. The Calhoun Treaty ceded all remaining Cherokee claims north of the Tennessee and Hiwassee Rivers, except a narrow strip in the mountains along the North Carolina line, between the Hiwassee River and the Little Tennessee River. These records would have been recorded a the time shortly after the removals and represent some of the first settlers in the area.
