WELCOME! My name is Diane Siniard and I am the county coordinator for Lenoir County's NCGenWeb page. Please feel free to contact me with any questions, comments, or suggestions. There is a search engine available for this site. It is located in 2 places on the home page for your convenience! Please check under the "What's New?" link for new items that have been added. I would like to get transcriptions of cemeteries, birth, marriage, and death certificates, photos and anything else you feel may benefit other researchers. Lenoir County was created in 1791 from the old Dobbs County. It was named for William Lenoir, a hero of the battle of Kings Mountain. It lies in the eastern part of North Carolina, bordered by Craven, Duplin, Green, Jones, Pitt and Wayne counties. Kinston was established in 1762, when it was still Dobbs County. It became the county seat of Dobbs in 1764, and when Lenoir County was formed in 1791, Kinston became the county seat of Lenoir County.
