    2. Sharon Dean Lee
    3. Thank you Bob and Jo for this wonderful information. I don't know what the laws are concerning artifacts; the only reason I know they have changed is that I had a great uncle in Alabama (he lived to be 103 and drove until he was 102!) who had an extensive collection going back (into his dreams and mine) many years. I remember visiting with him and his having mentioned changes in the law. Now, Bob, you must tell me about the Native American heritage we may share! Finally, there is a "lost" town of Roanoke, one in Southwest Georgia, burned during the 1836 Creek Indian uprising. http://tfn.net/~cdk901/2crekwar1.htm SDL -----Original Message----- From: Bob Forbes [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Friday, March 10, 2006 6:14 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [NC-PCFR] Indian Heritage Dear Interested Folks - I received a couple of 'private' emails yesterday after my response to Mr. Langley's post on this fascinating subject, then responded with a little more info I'd now like to share with all.

I sure hope Sharon doesn't try to nab me with a citizen's arrest regarding those artifacts that I DREAMT I had found in my boyhood (my childhood dreams could be so realistic)... Anyway, I did find an article about that really old Indian site that Calvin's post reminded me of, and I pasted it below since it has disappeared from the Internet and was hidden in a Google cache. Folks interested in this stuff should read on, for I think you'll find it quite fascinating... ECU ARCHAEOLOGY SITE IS "GIANT SAND TIME CAPSULE" An archaeology site near the Tar River in Pitt County has turned up evidence of human occupation going back more than 11,000 years and the dates could be pushed back even further as an archaeology team from East Carolina University continues its work. "The site contains the prehistory of the coastal plain in a nutshell," said Dr. Randolph Daniel Jr., an ECU archaeologist, in describing a location on Barber Creek where numerous settlements of Native Americans lived. Daniel calls the site, just east of Greenville, a "giant sand time capsule." He says the stratified layers of mostly sand covered by topsoil serve as a measuring stick to show a series of occupations over time. So far, the artifacts and other materials found at the site have been dated to the early Archaic Period of 11,000 years ago and continuing forward through the Woodlands Period that began about 3,000 years ago. As the archaeologists dig deeper, the remains of human life at the location could extend further back in time. Another unusual aspect of the site is that its location was once a fairly large sand dune. It's nothing compared to Jockey's Ridge, the famed dune on the Outer Banks, but it's a dune none the less, built over eons of time by blowing sand. With a sand dune that is gradually expanding in size, the oldest materials are found at the deepest levels. Thousands of years of human occupation can be stacked on top in measurable layers. Daniel is leading a summer field school of ECU students in conducting work. The initial efforts to investigate the site began two years ago when a team led by Daniel dug square and rectangular pits into the sand and uncovered materials as old as 9,000 years. This summer, the team has carefully scraped to a depth of more than three feet into the earth. "We have materials that date back to 11,220 years," said Daniel. "To the best of my knowledge, this is the oldest radiocarbon dated component (archaeological site) in the state," he said. Radiocarbon dating (Carbon 14) is done with organic materials such as pieces of charcoal, chips of bone and bits of hickory nutshells. The Barber Creek site is particularly beneficial to archaeologists because these materials are found in layers combined with stone tools and pottery that early people used with their campfires and food items. Among the artifacts found at the site are pieces of pottery and stone tools such as hammers, scrapers and projectile points. Some of the stone implements and the flakes of stone removed to sharpen the edges of the stone tools include rocks from the coastal plain region as well as from the Piedmont sections. A scraper found in one pit may have come from as far away as Morrow Mountain near Albemarle in Stanly County. "It indicates that there was movement of people during these periods," said Daniel. He said life at Barber Creek was an intensive operation or there were repeated visits by hunters and gatherers from other places. The archaeological site was discovered about 20 years by Dr. David Phelps, a former ECU archaeologist who is now retired. The location is close to where the creek empties into the Tar River. The property is part of the Greenville Utilities Commission's Wastewater Treatment Plant. Daniel said the sand dune may also hold information useful in understanding floods and periods of drought that have occurred on the river over time. He said geologists have also been studying the sand dune with hopes that the layers will provide more insight about such things as the frequency of major flooding. Both archaeologists and geologists find the place ideal for their work because it is in an area that has never been plowed for agriculture or used for construction. The archaeological materials are embedded in layers of undisturbed earth that can be literally measured in time. And so far, as the archaeologists dig deeper into the sand time capsule on Barber Creek, the time period for Native American occupation in North Carolina slips backwards, further and further into a past that can only be imagined and dreamed about.

    1. Re: [NC-PCFR] Indian Heritage
    2. Jo - Indians were all over the Pitt County area before European settlers drove them out, but the area Calvin is referring to appears to be on the NE side of Greenville near Hwy 264, the 4-lane road which "straightened out" the somewhat crooked route of the (very) Old Pactolus Road. It is likely Grindle Creek that Calvin is referring to rather than Tranters Creek, for Grindle Creek originates in the large upland swamp known as Grindle Pocosin, which stretches from just north fo Greenville to Bethel, from Hwy 11 west to about the Edegecombe County line. I know, "upland swamp" sounds like an oxymoron but that's what a pocosin is, and as you know, 'upland' means only a few feet in eastern NC! Pocosins are poorly drained lands that won't perk and won't grow crops without lots of drainage ditches. They are mostly good just for growing pines and hunting deer. Anyway, Grindle Creek flows on down toward Pactolus emptying out to the Tar River not far from old "Yankee Hall." Not too far up the river from there is one of the oldest (if not THE oldest) archaeological Indian sites in the eastern US, believe it or not. ECU anthropology profs and grad students have documented lots of info on it, which I'm sure you can find by using the right keywords in a Google search whenever you're so inclined. I also have a good number of Indian artifacts, including a bunch of arrowheads and a tomahawk head, that I collected on our farm NW of Greenville near the Tar River when I was a boy. All of Pitt County is rich in Native American history that we know very little about!

I have been having a bit of a health problem that requires fairly long and frequent trips to Strong Memorial Hospital in Rochester, NY. If I go ahead and get a check in the mail, will I still be able to get the quarterly, or will I have to order it serarately? Thanks for your help. Shirley Kingsley

    3. The Pitt County Genealogical Quarterly has been turned over to the printer and hopefully should be mailed Friday. We are sorry for the unavoidable delay, and trust you will find it well worth the wait! Brenda

    3. Phil, one of the team of two that types, edits, indexes and gets it to the printer has been ill with bronchitis, so the mailing is delayed. I'm supposed to talk with Roger tonight and get an update. I'll post that tomorrow. Thanks to everyone for your patience and understanding.

    3. Bill, I believe Warren McLawhorn and Alice Baker to be the parents of this Thomas. Check The Adam McGlohon-McLawhorn Family of Pitt County, North Carolina Book by Leah McGlohon. Warren was the child of Arthur McLawhorn. Hope this helps.

    2. Nancy Pittman
    3. Dear Fellow Researchers, It was only a few short months ago when we learned our colleague and dear friend Frank Clark had passed away…then Monday we learned we had lost yet another; Allen Churchill. The task these two men executed in order to enrich the lives of Pitt County people have been immeasurable. Mr. Clark’s contributions to genealogy are already greatly missed and we will soon come to notice; without Mr. Churchill, our laboring will get even harder. Given that, (I’m serious) I trust everyone is taking care of them self. God Bless, Nancy
