Many of the Madison County records were microfilmed beginning in 1963.
The list of filmed items is at
https://www.familysearch.org/search/catalog/results#count=20&query=%2Bplace%3A%22Alabama,%20Madison%22&subjectsOpen=342972-50
The Bragg items were removed before the filming began. A list of the
recovered items was prepared by David Frost of Huntsville, AL, for the
Madison County Archives. An edited version is below. The size of the
task of digitizing and
preserving these items means that it may be some time before they are
available.
