Tonight's topic at Afternet's #GenealogyForum is Rowan and surrounding counties in North Carolina. It is at 8:00 eastern time, though I know for us late comers they will stick around. They have a different topic three nights a week. Remember bring your family names you are researching! They post them all the time and they really have been having luck making connections.
