12 Biennial Report op the



INTRODUCTION

The interest in personal and family history has grown so rapidly that
we are endeavoring to specialize in this department in our library. We now
have one of the best genealogical collections in the south and to it resort
daily people from all over the country diligently searching for family
records and military data to enable them to secure admittance to one of the
patriotic societies of our country.

Besides the genealogical material in the State Library the North Carolina
Historical Commission, which is housed in the same building, has many
county histories, marriage bonds, deeds, wills, etc.

The material in both departments is always available to the reseachers.
However, the staff of both are too limited to permit them to engage in
private researches. We are always glad to refer our patrons to some
competent genealogist who will gladly do the work for them.

In the following pages you will find a complete bibliography of all
general genealogy, state, county and family histories, military rosters,
newspaper clippings and magazine articles.
