dear, Jamie! I live clear out in California. My Great great Grandfather was John Winstead ROBERTS who was born in North Carolina, Dec 21, 1808. That's about all I know about his/my NC roots... There are so many ROBERTS families in NC it is a daunting thing to research from the opposite Coast of the Country. If you happen on anything you think might be of interest to me, please drop me a line.

I found a jewel at the Allen County Library on pages 124 and 125 of Bible Records of Rockingham County, North Carolina, and Several From Adjoining County of Stokes, compiled and published by Members of James Hunter Chapter, National Society Daughters of American Revolution, of Madison, North Carolina, 1985. It has provided the only documentation I have found for dates of birth for my Henderson, Moore and Lemonds ancestors. I have often wondered about the Roberts mentioned in the file and think there may be a connection. Jean or Jane (as she is called here) Henderson Moore was widowed and later married Thomas Knight. I hope you will find this as valuable as I did. MOORE FAMILY BIBLE No publisher or date available. From the family records of the late Mrs. J. C. Williams, Rt. 2, Stokesdale, NC.
