Abstracts of proceedings, concerning new, altered, or closed roads, recorded by the levy court and its successor the board of county commissioners, but handled by the county court, 1819-1851, circuit court, 1851-1853, and after that the county commissioners. The docket type entries are numbered in succession beginning with one and arranged chronologically. They contain brief descriptions of the roads, names of petitioners, court orders, damage awards, and references to the full proceedings in (Road Record) in series C871, C874, and C2308 that include the only records of the surveys and plats. C872 and C873 will be included in the plats project because they serve as intermediary reference points between (Road Descriptions) in series C867 and C858 and (Road Record) in series C871, C874, and C2308. A researcher beginning with a road in the first volume of (Road Descriptions) will find a county road number that leads to an abstract in (Road Book) that in turn provides the reference to (Road Record). In addition, for the years covered by one volume, 1870-1892, the recorded proceedings, if extant, remain in the county offices. The Archives will create an electronic finding aid from the records themselves.
