The Morristown-Hamblen Library has a very adequate genealogy room. The Meta Turley Goodson Collection contains genealogy info pertaining to Hamblen County as well as other Tennessee counties and other US States. The collection includes over 1500 books. Self service copying is available for 10 cents per page.
All material is readily available except for the census microfilm and the Grainger County material.
These two require the assistance of library personnel to unlock files. Unfortunately the Grainger County material was disappearing rapidly, so it was decided to limit accessibility to these items to help prevent further thefts.
