Commissions Certificates list.

to see copies of the entire list. Per the
book used as a guide by the NC Archives staff,
"North Carolina Research, Genealogy and Local
History" (2nd Edition) by Helen F. M. Leary, C.G.,
F.A.S.G. Editor, page 375:
Volume XI begins with a very useful series of
nearly 3,000 claims for civil and military
services rendered by North Carolinians from 1776
to 1780. This portion comprises about
one-third of Volume XI and is an incomplete
version of one of the lettered volumes (Book B).
the remaining two-thirds of the book are
disappointing in the extreme, for that portion
reports only the name of the payee, the number of
the voucher and the amount. There is no
heading to these accounts to explain what they
were for; there is no date; there is no hint as to
the geographical location. this portion of the
Account Book may as well be a census of
inhabitants of the planet Mars.
However, a careful study of this list shows many
of the names (about 1/3) are familiar to Randolph
County researchers as those men who settled on
land now located in today's Randolph County.
Therefore, it is easy to conclude this is a list
of Orange County, NC, County Commissioners.

 N. Odle
is listed on the bottom of this page. Per
the book used as a guide by the NC Archives staff,
"North Carolina Research, Genealogy and Local
History" (2nd Edition) by Helen F. M. Leary, C.G.,
F.A.S.G. Editor, page 374:
Volume IX begins with an account of a specific
kind of certificate. In 1789, the General
Assembly required all holders of original vouchers
to surrender them to the treasurer before 1
January 1791 in exchange for new certificates.
This was an effort to reduce the state debt by
devaluing the certificates - three new vouchers
were issued for each old one. Of the new
vouchers, one was for one-third of the principal
and was redeemable in cash at one-fifth face
value; the second was for outstanding interest on
the principal and did not itself bear interest;
the third was an interest bearing voucher for the
remaining two-thirds of the principal and could be
used to pay state taxes or fees. Geographic
locations of recipients of the treasurer's new
ce3rtificates are not indicated. The
remaining half of Volume IX is made up of accounts
of certificates issued by fiscal district auditors
or surrendered in payment of taxes and fees, and
thus assists in geographically placing the payer.
