Mrs. McBee was reputed  to be one of the leading Mississippi genealogists of her generation. Not  originally compiled for publication, this work contains a wealth of genealogical  information. Virtually all the information in this volume dates from the first  half of the nineteenth century and and is derived from the court records of the  following Mississippi counties: Claiborne, Harrison, Hinds, Holmes, Jefferson,  Warren, and Wilkinson. The contents include genealogical abstracts of deeds,  wills and bonds, probate minutes, and marriage bonds. Each of the seven sets of  county record abstracts is separately indexed for persons, while an index of  places follows at the end of the volume. Overall, the genealogical content is  very rich and extends to nearly 2,000 individuals
