"The most important genealogical and historical source for North Carolina through 1790"
Generations of researchers are familiar with the ten-volume series
The Colonial Records of North Carolina
, edited by
William L. Saunders and published from 1886 to 1890. This series was shortly followed by the twenty volumes of
The State Records of North Carolina
(1895-1911), edited by Walter Clark.
"The Records, Documents, &c., entitled
The Colonial Records of North
Carolin
a, were prepared for publication under the direction of the Trus-
tees of the State Library, and consist almost entirely of transcripts of
records, &c., in the offices of the Secretary of State, at Raleigh, and of
those in the British Public Record Office in London.
The incompleteness of the records in the Secretary's office in this
State is scarcely credible and at a very early day turned attention to those in London. Of the first fifty years,
indeed, no original records scarcely remain in North Carolina except some court records, a few grants, and
perhaps a few other papers of no great importance. The records of proceedings of Governor and Council
go no further back than 1712, though there were Governors as far back as 1664. The records of Assembly
go back only to 1754, with the exception of a mutilated copy of the Journal of the Assembly that met at
the house of Capt. John Heckle
field in 1715. There were Legislatures as far back certainly as 1665.
The first search made in London for information in regard to North
Carolina affairs was doubtless that made by the historian George Chalmers, who, in 1780, published
his Political Annals of the Present United Colonies, the fruit of his labors in the British Record Office,
to which the official position he held gave him access. This volume has been the standard authority
with all later Carolina historians. Its general accuracy as to matters of fact is by no means perfect,
and Mr. Chalmers' bitter prejudices as a Loyalist render his conclusions utterly unreliable."
