New subscriber here! ☑️ My Yelverton/ Blount grandparents were from Edenton, Chowan County. Am very excited to discover this channel - I'm sorry to hear about RU-vid problems...
Wow! How lucky am I that you and/or your husband have Edgecombe County roots. I have ancestors living there back to the early 1700s and recognized several family names on the maps. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you, and your guest Monika for this gold mine of information and sources. Now on to part two!
Just found the NC Genealogy you tube videos and am really impressed. My ancestors, William Garrett and Narcissa Edmondson, were from Edgecombe County. They left there around 1859.
Excellent. Thanks for the comment. You might also like my other RU-vid channel... Genealogy TV. It is more general genealogy than specific to North Carolina.ru-vid.com
Back in the early to mid 1700's I had families living in Guilford,Buncombe and rowan counties. Also in stokes and Granville Counties. My jones and Williams were in rowan County. Also on east side on nc I had duncans,ellis,mulkeys and scarborough families living in that region.
Not always. I would check both counties and the state archives. Also know that some of these counties, like Martin, were burned counties. All the more reasons to check in all surrounding counties and state archives for other records that may exist.
i'm trying to find more information on my freeman and sharpe family. also my great grandmother who was adopted by the purvis family, i believe she was the daughter of a Lynch man.
