- CHURCH HISTORY -
In this brand new section of the site (It's
presently very sparse so we need your input!), we will attempt to
document the spiritual "roots" of eastern North Carolina families. We
will add content as we are able, and we also encourage website visitors
to submit items relevant to their own family's faith -- including
documents relating to the planting of churches, histories, Baptisms, and
other such records.

Apprenticeship Bonds
- From 1715 to 1919, North Carolina regularly placed
children in apprenticeships. Sometime this occurred at the request
of a parent, other times because the child was orphaned or born to
parents of meager means (whether white, Indian, black or some
mixture thereof).

Thomas and Mary Whitmell
Harrington of Bertie County - This tree spans
throughout eastern North Carolina. Harrington is a particularly
strong name in Craven County. (Submitted by
Jackie Wood.)
-
Mills Family of Screven County Georgia - This Mills family
(Mills is a prominent surname in Pitt County, NC), is connected by
marriage to the Burneys and Forbes of Pitt County, but as of yet, no
connection has been made to the Pitt County Mills. Perhaps other
Mills researchers will be able to help determine if this Mills
family connects back to North Carolina! (Submitted by
Sharon Dean Lee)
