| History ~
Maps ~ Biography ~ Old Chariton Files ~ What's New ~ Lookups Brief History of Chariton County [Wiki] Chariton County was settled primarily from the states of the Upper South, especially Kentucky and Tennessee. They brought slaves and slaveholding traditions with them, and they quickly started cultivating crops similar to those in Middle Tennessee and Kentucky: hemp and tobacco. Chariton was one of several counties settled mostly by southerners to the north and south of the Missouri River. Given their culture and traditions, this area became known as Little Dixie and Chariton County was at its heart. It was heavily pro-Confederate during the American Civil War.[3]  Cities and Unincorporated Locations

Records that are not available with the traditional FS Search The Resources are wonderful, but the search parameters and functions are intimidating to the novice FS Catalog Researcher. See the info left for the types of information. \\\???/// So... The following will help you get a handle on information that could be of value to your search for Family data. The chart linked here will be a decent guide. To access the Historical Images, log into your FS Account: Click on Search, then at the top of the page: Historical Images: You can begin with the search, but if you get lost or cannot figure it all out, then use the chart I have created to access the information. \\\???///
