I thought that some of you may be interested in the below website. I received it from a North Carolina genealogy site, I belong to. We do have several who have ancestors from North Carolina or who migrated to North Carolina from Virginia and this may help in your research. If we have any researchers in North Carolina, it would be wonderful, if you find any Poythresses or other surnames related to the North Carolina Poythresses, to have you post what you find on the Poythress Website. The below site has a listing of North Carolina newspapers that have now been microfilmed and the dates that they started publication so it could help in obits, marriages and other mentions of Poythresses in North Carolina. If you anyone ever finds anything on my GG-Grandfather David Poythress, I sure would appreciate a heads up and I would be glad to pay for a copy of anything related to him or any of his children from the Warren County and Vance County area.
