Finding Notes at the courthouse in Georgia

I am looking to purchase some notes and was told to go look at the courthouse. I just found that in Georgia notes are called security deeds. However when I looked up security deeds on the county website these documents dont give me enough information to determine if this is a note I should be looking at.

Are there any investors in the Georgia area who have done courthouse research and found good notes. Please help.

First, why do you want to buy notes, and what do you plan to do with them. Generally, "notes" aren't recorded in the court house, just the mortgage/trust deed which the security instrument for th note. Trying to identify a particular note, then going to the bank to buy that one, will be an exercise in futility...see "wild goose chase".
