Hawkins County, in upper east Tennessee was created in 1786 from Sullivan County when both of these two were still part of North Carolina, but under the direction of John Sevier as Governor of the State of Franklin. This is a full transcription of actions of the Chancery Court during the time period given in the various cases that came before them. These were cases that generally involved more than the County Courts could handle.

Example from this volume:

November 10, 1825 - Jane B. Campbell, Adm’t; Andrew Campbell, Dec’d vs Thomas Gillenwaters & Samuel Wilson - “In this cause it appearing to the satisfaction of the court that two terms have elapsed since the death of the Comp’t without any steps having been taken to revive said cause in the name of the representatives of said deceased it is therefore ordered by the court that the said cause be and the same is hereby abated.”
