Hello Watauga researchers. Was poking around online and ran across this site that shows the county formations. http://www.mynorthcarolinagenealogy.com/nc_maps/nc_cf.htm They also have a general page about Watauga that might be useful. At the bottom of the Watauga page is a list of links. One of them is for "A History of Watauga County". That link goes to Ancestry.com and you have to be a member of Ancestry to access it. Keep in mind that I have the same book posted online here for free: http://www.geocities.com/familysnooper/Arthur/contents.html No sense in paying for something you can get free, I always say! Sharon
