The full title is: The Georgia Black Book: Morbid, Macabre, & sometimes
disgusting records of genealogical value. It is research based on court
rulings, prison records, insane asylum records and various other crimes and
felons. Volume II has:
Genealogical sources relating to felons, felony victoms, etcs
Divorces in Acts of the legislature (1793-1868)
Names changed in legislative acts of the legislature 1800-1856
Ga defaulters of the federal direct tax of 1812
Ga widows and orphans of war of 1812
Ga state insane asylum inmates 1842-1853
Ga civil war depredations and state troops' courts-martial
Artificial limbs for ga veterans 1866-1867
reports of racial violence 1868-1871
Widows and orphans of the civil war and the Ga masonic orphans home
lottery, 1870-1876
some names in State prisoner redcords 1877-1886
1880 census of the GA insane asylum
Pardon & parole files 1858-1942.

This book is really a source on where to look for records - it does not
contain the records themselves for the most parts. Some are detailed, most
are just indexes to the records that they are discussing. So if you found
your ancestors name in the prisoner records section, for instance, it would
tell you where to go to find the records, but no details about what they
contain. THere is a short summary at the beginning of each section as to
what types of info you could expect to find.
