The Orange County Home for the Poor was located at the intersection of what is now called The Efland-Cedar Grove Road and The Lebanon Church Road. The farm was located in the Southeast quadrant and the cemetery in the Northwest quadrant. Only a few of the graves are marked but now is a good time to see it because it was recently mowed. Some of the farm outbuildings are still standing. It is my understanding that deaths and burials at the county home were items on the county commissioners' minutes available in Raleigh at the Department of Archives. To visit the poor farm site, go to Efland. US 70 is its main street. Go on 70 West to the Presbyterian Church. Turn North on the Efland Cedar Grove Road. The Lebanon Church Road intersect about 3 miles North.

Richard, This exact same message was sent to me at Cemetery Census a day or so ago. I replied to Heidi with information that is available on the web site. I also asked Milton Forsyth to reply with any information he has. Milton has already replied to Heidi and given her some additional places to look for records. Here is Milton's reply: ------------------------------ The "Poor House Book" records cover the period 1842-1868 (1 Vol.) and the "Wardens of the Poor" records cover the period 1832-1879 (2 Vol). That does not mean these persons might not be mentioned in the many thousands of pages of other records that exist, but it is hard to think where one should look. If you want to look through these Poor House records they are on microfilm. There is a copy at the Orange County Library in Hillsborough, in the North Carolina Room. There is also a copy (and the originals) at the NC State Library and Archives in Raleigh. If they died while residing at the Poor House it is likely they were buried in the cemetery there. It is unfortunate the records aren't any better with regards to that cemetery. ------------------------------ The cemetery is listed at Cemetery Census as #083 - County Home [old] Burial Ground http://cemeterycensus.com/nc/orng/cem083.htm At 03:49 PM 03/13/08, you wrote: >Can anyone provide any assistance to this lady?

Wednesday, 5 March 2008 -- D-OGS Meeting TOPIC: "Roots of Resistance -- A Story of the Underground Railroad" PBS Video in The American Experience series. In the mid-1800s, black men and women traveled a network of escape routes known as the underground railroad. Over dark forest trails, back roads and rivers, they made their way along carefully mapped routes leading to night trains to the north or boats to the south. Their flight from the shackles of slavery in the south was organized by other escaped slaves and their allies. This program recounts the little-known story of black America's secret railroad to freedom through narratives of escaped slaves. Viewers listen to interviews with descendents of slaves and slaveholders describing personal danger and terrible risks involved in each slave's departure. After the passage of the Fugitive Slave Act of 1850, even a successful flight to free territory didn't guarantee freedom from professional slave catchers who hunted down these men and women and returned them to a life of bondage on southern plantations. D-OGS Meeting will be held on: Wednesday evening, 5 March 2008 at 7 p.m. Duke Homestead Visitor's Center 2828 Duke Homestead Road, Durham 27705 Phone: (919) 477-5498 One-half mile from I-85 and Guess Rd (Exit 175) Follow the brown historic site road signs.

Click here: Missouri Secretary of State: News Release I've just come across a remarkable project sponsored by the Secretary of State of Missouri. This is part of their announcement: "Jefferson City, Missouri — Secretary of State Robin Carnahan announced today that her office has placed online a five-part video series highlighting African-American genealogy. African-American Genealogy: Putting Together the Pieces of Your Past was created by the Missouri State Archives, a division of the Secretary of State's office." These videos can be viewed online by going here: http://www.sos.mo.gov/archives/about/presentations.asp I'm sure you'll enjoy watching some or all of the five-part series. Wouldn't it be wonderful if the state of North Carolina could do something similar? Our heritage is so important, and fascinating to all family historians.

This event is coming up on March 15. I did not get it into the March newsletter that has already been sent to press: Irish Americans looking for their roots will have an opportunity to learn how to trace their family trees back to Europe at a genealogy lecture scheduled to take place in Bridgeport on Saturday, March 15, 2008. The presentations by three noted researchers will take place at Housatonic Community College 900 Lafayette Blvd in Bridgeport starting at noon. Prof. Jonathan Shea, a foreign language professor at HCC, will lead off the sessions speaking about American sources needed to find information about the family on this side of the ocean, some of which will take the researcher back to the family’s place of origin in Ireland. Among the sources to be discussed are local birth, marriage and death records, probate files, church registers and similar documentation generated on a local level as well as information laden records of the federal government such as decennial census returns, WWI draft registrations and ships passenger lists from Ellis Island and other ports of entry. Shea, a New Britain native, traces his paternal roots to the counties of Offaly and Mayo in Ireland and has done on site research in the National Archives in Dublin, local county records offices and Catholic parish archives in his counties of origin. Stated Shea, "My family not only emigrated to the US but to the United Kingdom, Australia, Argentina and New Zealand so tracking down all the various branches of the family has taken me on a documentary journey to four continents." Resources in Ireland will be discussed by Janet Pestey of the Connecticut Society of Genealogists. Major records sources such as the nineteenth century Griffiths Valuation Lists and the surviving Irish census returns will be covered as well as information on national vital records indexes many of which are available at the Family History Center in Woodbridge and the resources to be found at Irish National Archives. Also included will be Civil Registration records which began in 1864, church records, tithe records estate records. Local sources and computer sites will also be discussed. The speaker is a retired educator and a frequent lecturer on the topic. The third in the trio of experts is Daniel Lynch of Trumbull. Lynch will concentrate on internet sources researchers can use from the comfort of their own home to hunt for ancestors. As more and more records are digitized and becoming available on home computers, this facet of genealogical research is among the fastest growing aspects of genealogy. a pastime of millions Americans. Lynch is a 22 year veteran of the computer industry and served as a consultant to the Statue of Liberty-Ellis Island Foundation and was featured on ABC News Good Morning America as part of their genealogy series. The author of numerous genealogy articles, Lynch is a frequent lecturer on genealogy and technology. The seminar is the result of a collaboration between Housatonic, The Connecticut Society of Genealogists, headquartered in East Hartford and the Connecticut Ancestry Society headquartered in Stamford. Free parking in the college's parking garage is available to all participants and all are welcome at the event. There is no charge to attend the lectures. The Irish program is the second of a series of genealogy lectures held at Housatonic. Last year's seminar on Polish and Eastern European research attracted a capacity crowd from all over the state as well as persons from neighboring states. To obtain an approximate head count of those planning to attend, would-be participants are asked to contact Prof. Shea at [email protected], Stephanie Hyland of The Connecticut Society of Genealogists [email protected], or Rob Locke of Connecticut Ancestry Society at [email protected] -- Richard =+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+= Richard K.

Ginny, I am always on the look-out for relevant news items such as this. Several D-OGS members have been conscientious enough to send me items that they have seen. I really appreciate the cooperation that I have received. Hopefully, others will continue to share useful "nuggets" that may benefit other D-OGS members. Since we are spread around the country, there is no way of telling exactly who the news item might help with their family searches. - Richard Ginny wrote: > Thanks for putting this tidbit in the February Newsletter, Richard.
