| One of my mom's AncestryDNA Migrations is "Eastern North Carolina Settlers". I have a ton to learn about this state and the history of its early settlers. I hope that will help me get through some brick walls on both sides of Mom's ancestry. |
A few weeks ago I linked to Mary Hill's very informative webinar on overcoming record loss in genealogical research. She highly recommended "North Carolina Research: Genealogy and Local History" by Helen F. Leary as a great source. I immediately ordered a copy (not cheap: $55 at Amazon) and am waiting for it to arrive. It was supposed to arrive by yesterday but Amazon did notify me that it was indeed late.
I'm a bit peeved since I am excited to start using it and wanted to do a legitimate book shelf post on it. Hopefully it comes tomorrow!
