Kerma: There is an index to Burke County Land Grants on the Burke County GenWeb site: http://www.rootsweb.com/~ncburke/ In it you will find these grants: WALTON William 1800 3048 * WALTON William 1803 3404 * WALTON William 1803 3482 Copies of these may be obtained at the Burke County Public Library, North Carolina Room, 204 South King St., Morganton, NC, (828) 437-5638. There is a nominal charge. The originals of these documents are in the North Carolina Archives in Raleigh [where copies may also be obtained]. The library copies were a Bicentennial project several years ago. Due to the loss of public records at the end of the Civil War, relatively few old deed records can be found at the courthouse. As far as I know, all known pre-1865 records are in the state Archives. [Existing Deed Book A, in the Register of Deeds office, contains some re-registrations that were done after 1865.] Thanks for your interest in Burke County.
