Abstract:

Many important events happened in North Carolina during February that were important in the forward progress of the state or were conclusions of projects earlier begun. Among the events were the birth of Calvin Henderson Wiley, who was the first State Superintendent of Common Schools; the passage of legislation establishing the Fayetteville Normal School for Negroes; and the Battle of Roanoke Island during the Civil War.
