Abstract:
The author of this article is noted as a professor with North Carolina A & T University and Director of the Afro-American History Project. She explains in detail considerations, constraints, etc. in researching black families before and after 1865. An interesting note she inserts is that African tribes always maintained a genealogist or historian known as a "griot". That position became obscured with removal to the New World. Concerning other varied resources for consultation, North Carolina State Archives maintains a graves card file listing gravestone inscriptions in man of the state's cemeteries.
