Colonial North Carolina, 1700 - 1800

Sloops, Pirates, Indians, Slaves, Court Judgments,
Land Grants, Passenger Lists, and Historical Facts-Volume II

Colonial records of the history of North Carolina and the eastern American coast from 1700 through 1800 come to life in this, Volume II. Beginning with the ships of the early 1700s, passenger lists, and the first voyages, the colonists landed in the new world full of hope and dreams. This was not so for those being sold from the slave ships.

Skirmishes occurred with the native Indians including numerous massacres occurring in Virginia and the Carolina's. The tribes of eastern NC and VA stretching into the northeast are explained including reasons why those skirmishes and outright wars with the new settlers occurred.

Step into descriptions of life during this era, find your ancestor land grants, Last Wills and Testaments, early American maps, and the stories of runaway slaves. Explore the selling of goods and services, including contents of colonial ships and their remains after wrecking on the shores of the Carolina's. Glimpse into the lives of selected colonists, their libel suits, assault cases, and murder trials. Read about the establishment of Cambeltown (later Fayetteville) in 1739 and the hardships of the new world amidst the joys of establishing a new colony. If you missed Volume I, take a step back into the previous century and walk away with a new appreciation of our past. It's the real thing...
