I thought some of you might like to be aware of three published
genealogies of Warren Countians which, though no longer in print, have
been filmed by the LDS and are available on *microfiche* (not
microfilm). FYI, microfiche costs 15-cents per fiche to order, and the
fiche stay permanently at the local LDS Family History Center - so they
are never returned to Salt Lake (no renewal fees!).
These 3 books are on a total of 12 microfiche, so for a grand total of
$1.80, you could order all three books and have them permanently at the
Family History Center nearest to you.

All three were written by Seth Warner of Durham, NC, and were published
around 1980-1982.

The titles & details of the three:

• "The Descendants and Antecedents of John Parham Rose (1793-1869) and
Mary H. (Langford) Rose (1802-1879) of Warren County North Carolina,"
Vol. One and Vol. Two - (10 microfiche total); Order number for Vol One
is #6010766; for Vol Two #6010767.
This book has an index.
Surnames include: Cawthorne, Coleman, Duke, Lambert, Mabry (Mabrey),
Paschall, Stainback, Settle and related families.

• "The Descendants and Antecedents of John D. Langford & Martha Eliza
(Steed) Langford of Warren County, North Carolina;" (1 fiche) - Order
#6010765.
Surnames include: Cawthorne, Evans, Pass, Stainback, Timberlake, Wise
and related families.

• "The Descendants and Antecedents of William A. Hundley and Mahala W.
(Langford) Hundley of Warren County, North Carolina;" (1 fiche) - order
#6010764.
Surnames include: Jordan, Langford, Lewis, Morton, Newman, Rose, Suber,
Weldon, Wiggins and related families.

--------
I have found all 3 books to be well-researched (despite some errors),
and to be very good references. As with any such books, you should
always go back through and "re-prove" your line.

For anyone not familiar with the term "LDS," this means "Church of Jesus
Christ of Latter Day Saints," which many people refer to as "Mormon."
Their library in Salt Lake, as well as all their family history centers
are open to the public at no charge. You need not be of the LDS faith to
use the facilities, and in my experience, there is no discussion of
religion whatsoever in any of them (i.e., nobody will try to "convert"
you; I'm Episcopalian and no one at a family history center has ever
even asked whether I have a religion, let alone what it is.)
The website is found at:
http://www.familysearch.org

On that site you can search the library catalog, search for locations of
local Family History Centers, search the transcription of the 1880
Federal Census, as well as search various data submitted by other
researchers, and search the the IGI (International Genealogical Index).
