Libraries with Genealogical Resources


There are small libraries in each community of Grundy County.
The Tracy City Public Library, located on Main Street in the City Hall, probably has the best historical collection. The address is P.O. Box 1419, Tracy City, TN, 37387. It is open Monday and Wednesday from 12:00 - 4:30 and on Friday from 12:00 - 5:00. The telephone number is (615) 592-9714.

The Tennessee State Library and Archives holds the largest collection of Grundy County and Tennessee genealogical material available. There you can see microfilm copies of the Grundy County records which burned when the courthouse was destroyed, as well as the census records and nearly all the books published about Grundy County. Visit the State Library & Archives website for more information.
