It has better details than that to be found in the subsequent land grants. It was customary for the settler to describe the location of his plantation on some stream or head waters of some stream, or on some mountain. Each entry is dated. There were numerous transfers of entries before the issuance of a grant. Some are refereed to in the entry, but generally the entry taker would mark through the name of the original entree and insert the name of the one to whom it was transferred. Not only was the first named entered, frequently marked out, but many times erased and the next name written in its place. Many of the entries had as many as four names marked out and written in with no way of knowing whose name was the last one written. North Carolina started its Land Entry Book when the county was organized in March 1778. This old Entry Book Abstracts will be of help to many whose ancestors either passed through or remained in Wilkes County.

"W Poszukiwaniu Siebie" to "opowiesc o odkrywaniu siebie, milosci i szczescia." Napisany w formie powiesci poradnik w rozwoju osobistym, poszukiwaniu harmonii i szczescia w zyciu jest rowniez przewodnikiem dla osob, ktore znalazly sie w trudnych sytuacjach zyciowych. "W Poszukiwaniu Siebie" daleka jest od szablonu klasycznej powiesci - juz sam podtytul "opowiesc o odkrywaniu siebie, milosci i szczescia" zdradza oryginalny zamiar autorki, dla ktorej podroz wsrod wspanialych i tajemniczych nieraz zakatkow krajobrazu i kultury dalekich Indii stanowi jedynie pretekst dla ukazania glebokiej psychologicznej i filozoficznej warstwy przezyc glownej bohaterki Majki. Mloda kobieta, ktora po bolesnym rozwodzie rozpoczyna swoja uzdrawiajaca podroz w Polsce przez poznanie roznych technik samopomocy, podejmuje ryzykowna decyzje porzucenia bezpiecznej iluzji swojej rodzimej rzeczywistosci i wyrusza w nieznany swiat, w poszukiwaniu odpowiedzi na dreczace ja pytania dotyczace sensu ludzkiej egzystencji. Te poszukiwania zaprowadza ja do Ameryki, a nastepnie do Indii. "W Poszukiwaniu Siebie" w wyjatkowy sposob opowiada historie ludzi, ktorzy podczas swojej podrozy doswiadczaja i smakuja zycia, szukajac najwlasciwszych drog dla siebie. Znajdziemy tu oprocz wspanialych i egzotycznych krain oraz rownie egzotycznych i interesujacych postaci bohaterow, niezwykle wciagajace watki zwiazane z odkrywaniem i poznawaniem siebie, swojej natury i swoich wlasnych marzen i pragnien. Ksiazka zawiera rowniez nieprzebrane bogactwo wiedzy na temat kultury, religii i wspanialych tradycji Indii, ktore staja sie dla autorki tlem dla ukazania glebokich przezyc bohaterki oraz skomplikowanych wiezow uczuciowych i relacji laczacych ja z innymi postaciami powiesci. Jednoczesnie jednak kaze nam spojrzec obiektywnym okiem na problemy dzisiejszego swiata w ogole. RECENZJE: "Madra i ciekawa. Zmuszajaca do refleksji. Budzaca pytania, jakie wiele kobiet stawia sobie w zyciu. Pozostawiajaca po sobie slad w pamieci. Zdecydowanie warta przeczytania " - Ania Witowska, autorka ksiazki "Babskie Fanaberie" "Wiele przeczytalam dobrych ksiazek na temat rozwoju osobistego, ktore wypelniajac moje wnetrze, stanowia rowniez zewnetrzna ozdobe mojego domu. Kiedy dostalam do przeczytania "W Poszukiwaniu Siebie'', to pomyslalam sobie, ze juz sam tytul jest bardzo wymowny i znaczacy, dlatego tez poczawszy od pierwszych stron do ostatnich bylam w stanie ciekawosci i refleksji, gdzie poprzez doswiadczenia bohaterow poznawalam na nowo siebie. To ksiazka, ktora w wyjatkowy sposob opowiada historie ludzi, ktorzy podczas swojej podrozy doswiadczaja i smakuja zycia, szukajac najwlasciwszych drog dla siebie. Dawno nie czytalam ksiazki narracyjnej, w ktorej byloby tak wiele wznioslych i waznych mysli, refleksji i prawd na temat zycia i ludzi, opisanych prostym i przystepnym jezykiem. A to wszystko za sprawa narracji i lekkiego stylu, w ktorym ujeta jest opowiesc o losach bohaterow, ktorzy szukaja milosci, szczescia i spelnienia. Poprzez wyjatkowe dialogi bohaterow, w ktorych przywoluje sie Wielkich Myslicieli tego Swiata, czytelnik uczy sie odpowiedzialnosci za swoje zycie - bo ma do wyboru: moze pozostac w dotychczasowym schemacie myslenia albo moze wlaczyc sie w proces przemiany tylko na zasadzie dobrowolnosci. To ksiazka, ktora jest dla kazdego, kto chcialby dowiedziec sie, w jakim kierunku podaza Swiat. Swiadomie obserwujac zmiany, jakich dzis doswiadcza ludzkosc, smialo moge powiedziec, ze "W Poszukiwaniu Siebie" to ksiazka, ktora w literacki sposob zapowiada Ere Wodnika, to ksiazka, na ktora czekal Swiat, bo po jej przeczytaniu, co do tej pory bylo niemozliwe staje sie mozliwe, i to, co do tej pory bylo odlegle i przeciwstawne, staje sie bliskie i czescia calosci." - Agnieszka Magdar, trener rozwoju osobistego, tworca Kreo - Planety Kreatywnej Edukacji
This book is a representation of my thoughts, perceptions, and honest feelings on various subject matters. It serves as a microscopic view into my mind and heart. Some of these writings come from personal experiences, things I've seen, can relate to, or just my own opinions. I hope this will provide a personal insight into who Abe Lowe IV really is; Very complex, yet simple. W.E.I.R.D. So ride with me as I take you on a roller coaster through my cognitions, exploring emotions from different time frames of my life. There are a few valleys and peaks along this journey. It is my goal that the world today is projected through my eyes. I say what most think, but are afraid to say. Strap in and prepare yourself for departure. ALL ABOARD
W.I.S.D.O.M. tells the story of the perpetually reluctant mother, as she enters her twenties with her own pessimistic views on children and parenthood, only to discover that in the words of Ian Malcolm, "life, uh...finds a way." Through bitingly honest humor she navigates through a multifront effort to pursue her own life goals, fight against mommy culture, and, oh yeah, raise a child. Through clever acronyms, W.I.S.D.O.M. guides the reader on a chronological journey to overcome the challenges faced throughout child-rearing. The reader will learn how to prepare for a baby while averting the insidious baby industry and their devious corporate marketers, and champion judgment-free parenting with the metric of, "what is easiest for me?" Most importantly, this book speaks to mothers striving to retain own goals outside of parenthood by giving career advice such as, "A great way to answer the typical interview question, 'What has been a challenge in your life and what did you do to overcome it' is to begin with 'Before the accident...' and then describe how you overcame those challenges to get where you are today. Just don't mention that 'accident' means pregnancy." In the end, every reader can comfortably rest knowing that, like the author's ancestors, who upon reaching the Midwest over one hundred years ago, decide that sometimes we just have to settle for good enough.
