Researching many families of Warren, Halifax, Granville, Franklin, Nash and Wake Counties that were living there in the 1800's, both before and after. Remember, please check any of the names I have to verify that they are yours before including them in your family files, and as usual please do me the courtesy of including me as one of your Sources if you use my data.
