The time period generally covers just prior to the Revolutionary War and continues up to about 1899. The people who settled came from Virginia, North Carolina and Georgia primarily, a few from Maryland with a smattering from overseas of New England. Land records are remarkable in that neighbors are listed and location of property with explanation as to location. Births & deaths plus places of burial are recorded; complete families are given, in many instances several generations. Many include place of birth of eldest. Marriages including places are include. A must for anyone with roots in North Carolina or Virginia who needs a missing link between the East and West.
