REGIONAL
GENEALOGY
  ttacks
on the vulnerable Pennsylvania and Virginia frontiers, by
French and Native American forces eager for territory, forced
many settlers to flee south down the Great Wagon Road to the
Carolinas.
When
war began, North Carolina leaders fortified the coast against
possible invasion. However, unprotected western frontier settlements
were considered at risk from Native Americans friendly to
the French until the construction of Fort Dobbs. Thereafter,
during periods of extreme danger, colonists occasionally left
their homes and camped near the protective log walls of the
fort.
Were
your ancestors here? Did they follow the Great Wagon Road?
