North Carolina Genealogy

Thanks in part to some forum posts over the weekend I’ve been making some updates to the following county pages today: Alamance County Genealogy, Catawba County Genealogy, and Moore County Genealogy. Moore County got the biggest update, with a feed from the forums plus a thumbnail sketch of the county history. Alamance [...]

The last several days I suspect that at least the front page wasn’t showing here. My first clue was when a couple articles I have pending at an article site were rejected because the links didn’t measure up to their editorial guidelines. ((?)?) So, I took a look and the front page [...]

Yes, I’m still working on county page updates. There are, after all, 100 of them (!) and this isn’t the only thing I do… today I visited Mecklenburg County NC’s page for a BIG update as well as including the forum feed. I also added the forum feed for Ashe County as well. [...]

Just thought I’d post a note to acknowledge that I’ve modified the following county pages: Beaufort,Bertie,Bladen,Brunswick,Buncombe,Burke. Also…

I spent a good part of February and perhaps March over at the South Carolina Genealogy site expanding and revising the county pages to make them more of what I had envisioned from the outset and I’m starting the process here as well. I’ve toyed with the idea of forgoing frequent posts while I’m [...]

After the Last Wordpress Upgrade the Map page has stopped working and I haven’t had a chance to investigate. I do hope to get it back in use as I really liked the idea of putting either Cemeteries or Historic Sites on the map where you could browse by location. Given that I’ve [...]

You will probably have noticed the link at the top of the page for the North Carolina Genealogy Forum. I’ve just finished adding forums for each county of the state and linking to them from the respective county pages. It’s been a long time coming, but feel free to post your genealogy queries [...]

I want to announce a new article series that I’ll be starting this Tuesday. The series focuses on some of the (many) challenges that the digital age presents for genealogists. It is intended to flesh out and expand an article that I have pending for syndication online. I hope you enjoy the [...]
