Who said that wishing won't make it so? <g> Thanks go directly to the encouragement from so many of you who put in requests on the first "Researchers Wish List" of unavailable and/or out of print resources the Author has made a few of her books available again! Here are a couple of links that you can use to find out just which books are back in circulation, how you can get one and the content: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem <http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=378&item=5517321 939&rd=1&ssPageName=WDVW> &category=378&item=5517321939&rd=1&ssPageName=WDVW http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem <http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=2980&item=551733 2116> &category=2980&item=5517332116 If you haven't mentioned yet would you please tell me which research books from which authors you would most like to have made available again for your research? There are so many wonderful resource publications that are out of print because the authors or those who retain legal rights haven't seen a reason to dust off their master copies for and it is very encouraging for them to know that their work is remembered and desired. Best Regards, Marianne mordway@adelphia.net www.b4us.net <http://www.b4us.net/>

Hi Everyone, I'm working on a "Researchers Wish List" to beg Authors to renew circulation of their most desirable publications and wanted to ask each of you which of these out of print books you would most like to see made available again starting with these? http://www.b4us.net/foutsbooks1.html If you have a chance to look over these book descriptions I'd really appreciate hearing back from you to learn which one(s) you would most love to read please? Thanks so much ~ Marianne PS Please share this request with your other area List groups if you can as I've already stepped out of line with this many notes. It is important I think to not allow so many of the remarkable books that have been published over the years to slide into obscurity and will be helpful to get as much area input as possible to make a convincing plea.

Hi Everyone, Since the Lists are kind of dead I thought that you might want to look over these online Historical Books regarding NC to see if anything was interesting or perhaps useful to you? http://docsouth.unc.edu/result.phtml?lcsh=North%20Carolina%20--%20Biogra phy University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill Libraries - Documenting the American South

Hi Everyone, Al Ward has added the Outland - Joyner Cemetery information to the Northampton Cemeteries Section. Many thanks to Al Ward & Dennis Babb for sharing these terrific files with area researchers! http://www.rootsweb.com/~ncnortha/cemetery/cemetery.htm [Please click the cemetery name to open its file.] Faye Wallace has provided another section to the Hoggard Cemetery that I've dubbed "Section VII" and it is definitely worth checking out: http://www.rootsweb.com/~ncbertie/cemeteries.html Here is a neat site for photos and information regarding NC Historic Sites that Becky just shared: http://www.ah.dcr.state.nc.us/sections/hs/default.htm Also you will love this book that you can read right now online! Becky just sent this search result link to me from the Joyner Library regarding the History of Halifax County, NC. http://216.239.39.104/search?q=cache:cviX2g9jhvIJ:www.lib.ecu.edu/ncc/hi storyfiction/document/alh/entire.html+%22Littleton,+NC%22%22History%22&h l=en&ie=UTF-8 I'll bet that there are great things to be found regarding all of the counties in their online collections and the search engines are at our disposal. Enjoy ~ Marianne

This is just wonderful news that I want to make sure you are all aware of this response to the Halifax List request the other day for help with information regarding the Mt. Tabor Church Cemetery Interments in Halifax County: "I have indexed all of the cemeteries in Halifax County. The book is called, In The Footsteps of the forefathers, The churches where they worshiped the graves in which they slumber. Go to my web site www.geocities.com/FlorenceHargravecurtis   Florence Hargrave Curtis" Thank you so much Florence for letting all of us know about this work that you've accomplished and made available for area researchers!

I want to share this with permission of Lorine Dornin who is the original author. She was sharing some good resources she have located recently through the rootsweb mailing list. I also want to question to see if anyone has the new version and their thoughts on upgrading. *************************************************** Here are a few of my top ones I found most useful: http://www.uswars.net/1775-1783/ List of most units and battles of the revolutionary war. http://www.itd.nps.gov/cwss/ Great for finding civil war ancestors. http://www.genealogyinc.com/maps/uscf.htm Links to county formation maps. Neat to see how county lines have changed over the years and how you can live in the same location but be located in 3 different counties in a 10 year time frame. http://www.mycensusmaps.com Links to county Census maps. Kinda like the above link only shows every ten years and overlays the previous census year so you can compare the two. VERY USEFUL. http://www.ftm2005.com/ The newest version of Familytreemaker just came out. This site shows how much they changed the format from ftm 11. I am wanting to know from someone if it looks like a good investment to purchase the program or just stick with version 11. *************************************************

Hi Everyone, Here is a new page that will hopefully catch on with each of the County sites: From the Home Page: http://www.rootsweb.com/~ncbertie/index.htm Scroll down to "Bertie Family Records Notes & Bibles" and click to enter. You may also notice a new home page sub-link directly beneath this Family Records Notes & Bibles section: "Bertie County Bible Archives" that will hopefully make it faster to navigate around the site and locate similar records of interest. Thanks to John Tayloe we have one file posted in this new section and it is a VERY nice beginning: "The Matthew Vann White Family Bible" http://www.rootsweb.com/~ncbertie/bible1.htm Thanks to Molly's heads-up ~ Barbara Wamsley's terrific contribution of a huge Nicholls family file was posted today in the Bertie County Bible Archives: http://www.rootsweb.com/~usgenweb/nc/bertie.htm#bible If you enjoy these records and have some things regarding your ancestors that you'd like to share please send them to me when you have a chance so we can keep building these research data bases. Many thanks, Marianne mordway@adelphia.net www.b4us.net

Is anyone researching the large Scott family in Northampton about 1750? Father Joseph, wife Sarah, sons, Nehemiah, Joseph, William, John, & Benjamin; daughters Mary, Anne, Elizabeth, & Sarah. Would like to correspond. Sam sscott2@nc.rr.com

I am looking for information on the following family that I located on the 1880 census in Boykins, Southampton Co., VA. I believe the parents ended up in Northampton Co., NC: Taylor, James H. b. abt 1844 NC Sarah b. abt 1850 NC William H. b. about 1869 VA or NC Martha (Lucy?) b. 1873 VA or NC (married Mordie H. Barnes????)*11/30/1899 SOUTHAMPTON CO., VA B. Carter b. Oct 1879 VA or NC (married Hattie Pope) died 1947 Sallie b. 1875 VA? Fannie b. 1876 VA? Millan P. b. 1878 VA Minnie L. b. 1878 VA *I have been searching for years to locate more information on Martha or Mordie. I actually have them as Lucy and Herbert; however, their marriage record shows them as Martha Taylor, daughter of H & S Taylor, and Mordie H. Barnes, son of Martha. From Hebert Barnes SSN application I learned his parents were Jimmie Barnes and Martha Simmons. I am DESPERATELY seeking any information that would lead me to the parents of Martha (Lucy) or Mordie (Herbert). ANY AND ALL HELP WOULD BE MOST GREATLY APPRECIATED!!!! I am hoping that tracing this Taylor family might give me some leads that I looked over in the past. Thank you. Karen

Could the webmaster contact me about this Northampton Co. mailing list? I do not seem to be getting any of it's mail and I am supposed to be a member. Thanks. Becky
