This is a collection of genealogical and historical records--land grants, tax records, and birth, death, and marriage records--of early Albemarle County, the original gateway to the present State of North Carolina. Ray further includes genealogical notices and histories of these families: Barrett, Bryan, Cotton, Crudup, Dawson, Edwards, Hardy, Hunt, Lawrence, McKinnie, Marshall, Martin, Robinson, Rogers, Scowen, Sherer, Thomas, West, and Whitfield. (Part IV of Lost Tribes of North Carolina.)
