From the back of the book "In North Carolina's proprietary period (1663-1729), the primary means of acquiring land was by a headright.  A free person was allowed to claim a specified amount of land for each person, including himself/herself, that he/she transported into the colony for the purpose of settlement..." The headright gives a great deal of useful information: name of person claiming headright, names of individuals being transported into colony for settlement, and in some cases - the relationship between the grantee and the individuals is given, etc. This book is a wonderful resource for anyone doing genealogical research in early North Carolina.  Soft cover, 312 pages including index.
