Richard Wooton's collection of Wooten genealogy was donated to the Special Collections at the Joyner Library at East Carolina University in Greenville, NC. The Joyner Library is on-line, but the catalog of the Special Collections is not. I understand the collection contains all his books, newsletters, photographs of tombstones and properties, etc. You can also find some of Richard's books at the State Library of North Carolina (where the NC Archives are located) in Raleigh, NC. I think they have 4 of his books. The Library of Congress in Washington, DC, has a couple of them. The LDS has all his books available on microfilm (and the originals in their library in Salt Lake City). I checked with the National Genealogical Society Library in Arlington, VA (Richard's hometown), but they do NOT have any of his books.
