A History of the Cameron Family in North Carolina

Posted Friday, January 29th, 2010 at 4:11 pm

If you are a genealogist studying the Cameron family from North Carolina, then A History of the Cameron Family in North Carolina by John Burton Cameron of Broadway, North Carolina, published in 1967, will interest you.

This publication contains two parts:

  1. Part I: Descendants of Allen Cameron and his wife Mary Stewart
  2. Part II: Descendants of Norman Cameron and his wife Rachel Bruce

I hope you find this information useful.

Note 1 (2010 Feb 20): Instructions on how to enlarge each page
  1. Click on an image within the slide show, this will take you to Flickr.com.
  2. Above the image is a toolbar. Click on the All Sizes button.
  3. Optionally, click on Original to view a very large version of the image.
Here is an example of an Original image that I took of this book. You will have to scroll both down and right to view it all.
Note 2 (2010 Feb 20): Download Cameron Reports in PDF format My research certainly references and is based on A History of the Cameron Family in North Carolina. While I do not have a transcript of this 1967 resource, these PDF reports contain similar information and may be a better resource than the photographs I’m offering of the original document. Incidentally, if someone wants to transcribe A History of the Cameron Family in North Carolina verbatim, I would be happy to post its text here as well.

ALA Keeping Navigation Current With PHP

I don’t know what it was about this week, but I received two emails asking for some PHP and CSS help from individuals who recently read my 2003 A List Apart article entitled “Keeping Navigation Current With PHP.”

While the lessons in my article are still relevant, I’m just a little surprised it’s still being found, read, and followed.

Today, Google updated their Google Voice web page to function more
like a phone dial pad. It’s not an installable app, but it works all
the same.

Jim O'Brien wears flip flops

At the Indianapolis Pacers game last night, we noticed that head coach Jim O’Brien — while dressed in a suit — was wearing Adidas flip flops. Apparently, this wasn’t his first time doing it as I also found this AP photo.

We also saw Larry Bird in his normal seat and Subway’s Jarred Fogle.
