RCGWP Has Moved!
NOTE: THIS IS THE LAST UPDATE FOR THIS PAGE ON THE ROOTSWEB SERVER. ALL LINKS NOW POINT TO THE NEW SERVER
The RCGWP completed the move from Rootsweb to the NC Gen Web Project main server. “The Generations Network" which owns Rootsweb.com has merged with Ancestry.com, a paid service. TGN is the parent company of both networks and as many of you know Rootsweb has been free for many years. Rootsweb now has a domain, which is behind the Ancestry domain of (http://www.rootsweb.ancestry.com/).
TGN also announced earlier that banners would be placed on Rootsweb and that information on the site would become property of TGN. Other than a new domain name change, there should not be any noticeable changes within the project. All of the information currently on the Rootsweb server will be moved to the new one. I would like to thank Nola Duffy, Asst. State Coordinator, for assisting with the set-up and PATIENCE during this major transition.

Navigation Around the Site
As stated above, I want to make the navigation around the site easy and painless. The majority of the research can be accessed by the menus above or by the links on the right.
County projects are required to be updated every 6 to 8 weeks. I plan to update this site everyday by posting death notices and listing queries via mutiple message boards.
Here's the Latest...UPDATE!
- Robert McGee contacted the project in reference to finding information on a Robert McGee and Rachel Coltrane. His query has been posted on the message board.
- Richard Thrift has contacted the project requesting his family tree and DNA link be posted on the web site. We have posted his information on the Surname and Data page. Please visit his web site and if you would like to have your surname listed, please contact the project.
- Death Notices for April of 2008 have been archived. April's death notices will remain on the message board for five days before being removed. The SEARCH INDEX has also been re-indexed to reflect the death notices recently added.
- Keith has contacted the project in reference to Boone Cemeteries in Randolph County. Please check out his query on the message board.
- Death Notices for March of 2008 have been archived. April's death notices will remain on the message board for 1-2 weeks before being archived. The SEARCH INDEX has also been re-indexed to reflect the death notices recently added.
- Roy Wise of Atlanta, GA has contacted the project requesting information on William Johnson (Johnston) and his wife Alice. His query has been posted on the message board. If anyone can help out with this information, please contact the project.
- Bill Bertrand has contacted the project requesting help with a deed in Randolph County. Bill is asking someone to look up a deed regarding Cornelius Latham to Jesse Latham -- specifically in Book 13 pages 5 and 228? "I am hoping that these are those "for love and affection" deeds indicating a familial tie. Jesse Latham was a 4gr-grandfather of mine." If anyone can help please contact the project and we will contact Bill. This request has been posted on the message board. (UPDATE: 4-3-08, This request has been filled by the Coordinator)
