Just wanted to let everybody know that there was an article written about some of my research done with the help of the Digital Library of American Slavery. I had a huge breakthrough when I found clues in a petition I found in this online resource, and I was able to solve a longtime puzzle about two of my family lines in North Carolina. This is a wonderful resource that covers several States and if you haven't tried it, you may be surprised at what you can find. The article is in today's News-Observer which can also be read online at the address below.
