In the late 1800's and early 1900's, so many things (and people) outside of Johnston, wove the web, so to speak.  This episode is about the towns of Lucknow and Troyville. They may be in Harnett, but the connections are undeniable.

One of the first descriptions of North Carolina by the English that would later colonize the area was given by Ralph Lane, the governor of the first attempted colony. In 1585, Gov. Lane referred to the land as "the goodliest soil under the cope of heaven" in his letters back to England.
This podcast will tell the stories of its history, help people see the connections, not only between its "officials" but also between people that history either forgot or chose not to listen to. 
We will tell their stories; the plantation owners, the enslaved people, the displaced native Americans...all of them
