Petitioner(s):
Purpose / Short Description:
Text of Petition (drag lower right corner to enlarge box): To the honourable the General Assembly of the State of Tennessee of [Knoxville?] assembled 1803 We your petitioners inhabitants of the County aforementioned impartially viewing the many wrongs and inconveniences that we labour under with respect to our publick buildings humbly request the interposition of your honourable body to [regret?] our wrongs and to relieve us from being obliged to travel to almost an outside and remote [first] of the County two our Courthouse where at present is [first] The distance from the State line which is also the County line on the East and of the County to the Courthouse does not exceed twenty miles which comprehends the part taken off of Hawkins County which part we pray may continue annual to Hawkins and may not the considered a part of Claiborne County as we connect we have a sufficient bounday of Country to make a constitutional County without it. The inconvenience is, it is a narrow and mountanous pair but few inhabitants yet appears from some partially or other to withhold justice from the other apart of the County as they have unjustly drawn our publick buildings much above the [cluster?] that way the distance from the Courthouse westward to Anderson County line is about thirty six miles. The distance from he Courthouse south to the Grainger line about five or six miles. And the distance from the Courthouse North to the Indian lands from twelve to fourteen miles and much farther to the state line which is the present county line. We verily believe this statement of facts correct; in addition to which the west end of the county is much wider than the east end and vastly superior in number. Therefore pray your honours by your delegated authority two remedy our districts by directing our publick buildings to be completely in the center of the county or as convenient as possible to the majority. We further pray the next Election for members to the General Assembly to be held at Yokims Station in Powells valley and as in [-end] will ever pray
