Dear Richard, I checked the County Records book and the ORIGINAL MARRIAGE BONDS start at 1779 but the ones on MICROFILM start at 1752. I always used the original records because they were so easy to use I never checked the microfilm.

Lynn, I have a female Belvin who m. a Bledsoe in Wake Co., NC but haven't been able to take Nancy's Belvin line on back earlier.  If you know about your surname I would love to be in touch...thanks in advance.
