Pointing to the Various Locations Where I've Written on Subjects that Interest Me
In June 2010 I first experimented with Google "Sites" as a way of publishing material which I've worked on for the last 25 years, and not available in any other format. In 1999 and 2000 I wrote extensively about the unique Quaker heritage of Deep River in North Carolina, which is on the web here. In 2005 I wrote blog entries about Roman Bogdanov, my Russian foreign exchange student; started a blog on Randolph County (N.C.) history for my Chamber of Commerce 'Leadership Randolph' class; and kept the weekly Asheboro Rotary Club newsletter 'The Tar Wheel'.
The original version of this Google program, called "Google Pages," made website creation as easy as blogging on Wordpress. Now they've turned "Pages" into "Sites" and I'm trying that out. I have piles of information I really need to publish, on topics such as Textile and Industrial History, North Carolina History, and Historic Preservation, and Randolph County History.
As I add pages, I will link to each topic from here:
Deep River, N.C. factories and mill villages
Historic Preservation
