So are death records for Memphis from 1848 through 1913 and countywide from 1914 to 1949 and old Probate Court and other records dating far back into the 19th Century. The Shelby County Archives hasn't had it official opening yet, but it is already serving the public. In recent weeks, about 8,000 cubic feet of county records have been moved from Cossitt Library to the archives on upper floors at 150 Washington, said Steve Satterfield, county public records administrator who oversees the operation. We have roughly 20,000 cubic feet of shelf capacity here, so we are a little less than half full, Satterfield said. The shelves take up most of the space on the third and fourth floors of the building, which used to house the county jail and criminal courts.
