Scope and Contents
From the Collection:
The Dexter P. Tiffany Collection consists of various records of the St. Louis County Court, 1808-1902; the city of Carondelet, 1825-1870; and the Washington County Court, 1813-1830. The St. Louis County Court records span a wide variety of topics over a nearly 100-year period. Although some records are sparse and merely representative of the types of documents produced, others appear to be nearly complete series of records.
