[email protected] I have been trying for several years to follow any link to my great grandparents from Robeson County. My g grandfather's name was Johnathan Davis. He, his wife, several grandchildren, and his parents are buried in the Davis Graveyard on Tar Heel Rd in Robeson. Would you by some miracle have anything on him? Kay Carroll .

Remember that the court house burned 3 times, last about 1893. Birth/ death start about 1903-1910. You cannot find marriage records before 1893. A trip to the courthouse is great and they are very helpful. Birth & death are 25cent a page if you do it.

I don't know where my great-great-grandfather John Carter (born 1805) came from, I assumed Georgia, because that is where his wife, Martha (born 1810), came from. I don't know any of his brothers or sisters names, I wish I did. His daughter Molcey, (my great-grandmother, was born in Georgia. I would love to know more about your Carter family. Thanks, Evelyn
