The Julian Richard and Loula Omohundro Loving Family Records was one of the 320 plus records added to the North Carolina Family Records Online in  August 2010.

The State Archives and the State Library of North Carolina have partnered to create the North Carolina Family Records Online. The online collection currently contains a selection of over 700 Bible records (lists of birth, marriage, and death information written in North Carolina family bibles) from the 2000+ copies of various donated family Bibles held by the North Carolina State Archives. The State Library’s six volume Marriage and Death Notices—indexes of marriage and death announcements appearing in five North Carolina newspapers from 1799 to 1893—rounds out this collection.

Don’t forget to attend today’s free presentation, “Getting to Know Your Family: the Family Records Collection of the State Archives and the State Library.” For more information please go here, http://tiny.cc/89vzv.
