RN #112 NC State Records 1752-1759

This notebook contains the NC State records Vol. V, abstracted for the surname JONES.  It begins 1752 when the French forces were given orders to take possession of the territories of the Ohio Valley.  Following the Treaty of Aix-la-Chapelle in 1748, the boundaries between the British and French provinces in America were left unsettled.  Thus all the trouble yet to come...
