On July 1, 1961 the descendants of William Black, who emigrated from Glasgow, Scotland around 1817, gathered at Mt. Zion United Methodist Church in Alleghany County, North Carolina for the purpose of establishing an organization of the Black family.
Now, almost 50 years later, the descendants of William & Nancy Allison Black have produced a history of their family.
Two centuries after coming to America, here is their story.
