I received the following information from a correspondent who doesn't have a PAGE line and thought I'd pass it on.
"I borrowed some Journals from our Genealogical Society - Pitt County. There was one Page item.
Pitt County Genealogical Quarterly, Volume XIV, No. 1, February 2007. page 7.
"Index to Missing Deed Book FF", contributed by Roger Kammerer. "This copy of the reconstructed index to Deed Book FF, created by Mrs. Gertrude L. Soderburg of Greenville, NC, is found in Pitt County Misc. Land records,
C.R. 079.408.2; NC Archives, Raleigh, NC. She believed that Deed Book FF burned in the courthouse fire of 1858 which is incorrect. This Deed Book FF disappeared later and was probably stolen. This valuable deed book had deeds dated from the 1830's along with earlier deeds as far back as 1815.
Copies of some of the deeds from Deed Book FF have been discovered over the years and have appeared in past Quarterlies."

It's not much information, but may be useful."
NOTE by DCR (me):
For those of you who have (or have seen) the wonderful book "The Page Family in North Carolina 1685-1850" by Jesse M. Page, Jr., published privately in 1987, you will notice that Mr. Page didn't have the deeds from the Pitt Co., NC Deed Bk. FF. His deed records for this county skip from Bk. EE to Bk. GG. The above will show us that there was one PAGE deed in Bk. FF (the lost one).
QUESTION:
Does anyone have access to the genealogy magazine named above to see if this deed was in one of the issues? If so, would you please give us the information on it---with the complete reference to it?
