Abstract:
State Archivist H. G. Jones, a 37-year-old Caswell native, heads the largest department of archives in the nation. Guardian of documents for the entire family of four million North Carolinians, Jones is responsible for more than 7,000 cubic feet of records in the State Archives in Raleigh. Documents in Jones' charge include the 1663 Carolina Charter, county records, historical maps, and other valuable records of North Carolina's past.
