North Carolina Genealogy

Well, I’ve finally made it through all the currently existing counties of North Carolina. All 100 should be there. As you probably know by now, all you need to do is click on the menu entry in the sidebar to the right entitled “North Carolina Counties” and the menu will expand to list links to […]

I’m not sure if this is worth noting or not. I’ve just setup a second domain name pointing here. Some time back I had registered northcarolinagenealogy.info and it now directs to this site along with northcarolinagenealogy.net

Just another little update to pass along that the county list has been added to. I’ve now added information up to the letter ‘r’, so that means

I’ve just finished putting information in for all counties alphabetically up to and including Franklin County, NC. There are not loads of details in there this go around.

I’ve got a series of great articles coming up on the Colonization of the Americas by the European powers which will make great historical reference material. Admittedly some of them are reports on failed attempts to start colonies in the New World, but some may prove invaluable references.

I’ve made a link in the right hand sidebar to the new North Carolina Genealogy forum. It’s quite empty at the moment, just a couple of areas, but hopefully will pick back up before too long. The areas current in the forum are for General Statewide Queries, discussion on reference sites and an Announcements board. […]

This is the second layout that I’ve used to “redesign” the old NorthCarolinaGenealogy.net site, the first redesign started about 1-2 years ago and stalled. I’ve got links up on the right hand side to various parts of the old site. I intend to archive the old queries and forum posts as long as possible and […]

Call me sentimental…. I’ve copied the old site’s What’s New items (going back to 1997) into this article….
