It is for the use of individuals seeking to trace their own roots in the Watauga County, NC area.

Last updated March 28, 2006

NOTE: The purpose of this page is to assist those looking for their own Watauga Roots. It is not my intention to infringe on the copyrights of others, but to guide you to some of the sources which I have found to be useful in my own quest.


Please keep in mind that any information you might gather from this site is only that, "gathered information". There is no warranty as to the correctness or completeness of the information.
There are some wonderful sources available. For example,Watauga County Heritage, Vols. 1 & 2, and J.P. Arthur's A History of Watauga County North Carolina are two popular sources. Please keep in mind that any such source is only as good as the documentation which backs it up. Such sources should be used only as a "spring board" for going after the documents to back them up.
