Hi All, I've been reading alot of mail on another mailing list about "Bastardy Bonds" and was wondering if they existed for Early County. My great grandmother gave birth to my grandmother in 1905 when she was unmarried. I was wondering if one of these papers might have been filed. Does anyone know if they exist and where I might look for them. Patricia Parker I'm researching the following surnames: Layton, Strickland, McCormick, McCoy, Parker, Tharp, Birch. Concentration is in the South - North Carolina, Georgia, Florida.
