This web site is dedicated to the late Snyder E. Roberts, author of the book, "Roots of Roane County, Tennessee - 1792 -  ", published in 1981. See Sources  Most all of the contents are from his many years of research in the Roane County area. For a  complete list of his books, articles  and manuscripts held in Roane County Libraries, go to  the TN Archives , Access Online Catalog, and enter Roberts, Snyder in the search function, "all libraries."  (Some manuscripts are only at McClung in Knoxville).  There are also a few done by his wife, Pauline Halburnt Roberts.  (The book is available from the Oliver Springs Historical Society.)

His research papers have remained in Oliver Springs in the Roberts-Harvey Archives, with C. S. "Sonny" Harvey who is owner of the archives, and president of the O. S. Historical Society.

I have also  included material and links from other submitters. I am happy to share, as were my parents, all this information--but please, do verify anything you find of personal interest with the public records if possible. There's no way I could type all this and not have clerical errors! Please contact Mr. Harvey regarding any material you want to use for publication to avoid copyright problems.
