My husband and I have been researching black families in Edgecombe County for 4 years. Traci Thompson and Jo Webb have been extremely helpful with our research. We have gone to the Library i Tarboro and met with her on several occasions while visiting North Carolina. She is ALWAYS helpful and friendly. Shame on anybody that thinks Traci would make offensive comments. Without her, our family would NEVER have discovered as much as we have about our family !!!!! Steven M. and Deborah A.
