Good Morning, Can anyone give me information about the area where fishing creek and beaverdam swamp meet on the boarder of Halifax county and Nash county. The city near this area is DeLorme on the Nash side and Bellamy Lake on the Halifax side. The information I need is: What court house do I write to for information for deed and will records? Is there a genealogical/historical society in that area? Would the public library in that area have information on (who has) books for sale about the area. Information on farms and slave records for 1760-1810. Are there plot records for that area/timeframe and how would I get a copy. The Powell family branch that I am researching left this area in/abt 1810 for Lincoln KY. Thank You, Quan

Can anyone tell me what the two dates on the front of the courthouse in Nashville symbolize. The dates are 1833 and 1921. Thanks. Kyle

Ronda, Hello there, cousin! It's always nice to encounter another cousin. Thank you so very much for the information! I didn't know that Jonathan's middle name was Dowd. I knew his middle initial was D, but had no idea what it stood for. I am also glad to know who his father and other ancestors were. My ancestor Branch Moore's sister Rosetta married J. Brunson "Bruce" Boykin in Johnston County. Do you know who his parents were? I also have some information on Nathan Thomas Boykin, son of Jonathan and Mahitabel. I'm sure I'll have more questions later. I am so glad to meet you!

Hello Everyone, I am so sorry to bother you but I really need your help. I hope at least one of you have heard of a Percy "Big Boy" Sanders or a Robert Lee Harris? Percy's parents were Maggie "Mag" and Jim "Frog" Sanders. Frog had brothers called Toad, Major and Jack. I am looking for these people for my father George "Slick" Carter. In May we are celebrating my father's 82nd birthday and he really wants to see "Big Boy". They are related and I understand Robert may know where to located him. If you have heard of any of these people please contact them and ask them if I may contact them through you for the time being. Thank you for your help.
