    Concerning Hofmann's "North Carolina Abstracts of State Grants" series...

    Volume One contains Grant Book 28 through Grant Book 33
    Volume Two contains Grant Book 34 through Grant Book 38

    The web site for Mrs. Hofmann is

    http://www.margaretmhofmann.com>www.margaretmhofmann.com

    This site has a list of all Mrs. Hofmann's books as well as books she sells for other people.

    She also has a toll free phone line which is 800-455-8891

    There are several counties covered in each Grant Book

    This is a partial quote from George Stevenson, Private Manuscripts Archivist, North Carolina State Archives dated October 13, 1998 (from the General Introduction to the State Grants books):
    "In the three hundred year history of the land office the volumes have been numbered and renumbered and the loose papers rearranged more than once.
    The final arrangement and renumbering were put into numbered "shuck" files and a comprehensive grantee card index was made for all the volumes and the loose papers...." then "...
    Consequently, though Mrs. Hofmann has commenced with the lowest numbered state grant book, L.G.B.28, and has continued on with each succeeding volume,
    one is going to find whole blocks junior grants appearing before their seniors.
    It cannot be helped, for the books can no longer be restored to their correct order without pulling to pieces the whole apparatus of numbered volumes, shucked files, and comprehensive card index.
    In the end, as Mrs. Hofmann publishes her abstracts with their personal and geographical name indexes, the awkwardness of the present numbering system will be overcome by her work."



    PEARCE FAMILY BOOK

    I've just completed my new Pearce book that includes bunches of other families, like Foy, Whitfield, McCoy, Hardison, Grimes, etc. etc... It's basically my line of Pearces from out of Duplin as they crossed the border into Pender. Been researching it now for gobs and gobs of time... found a good publisher that can do it as a download (Ebook) or as a printed book. Can order it online. Really cool system. Anyhow, just wanted to let you know it was available now.
