NORTH CAROLINA GENERAL ASSEMBLY
1981 SESSION

CHAPTER 1112
HOUSE BILL 1035

AN ACT TO APPROPRIATE FUNDS TO THE DIVISION OF ARCHIVES AND HISTORY FOR PUBLICATION OF A BRIEF HISTORY OF ROCKINGHAM COUNTY.

Whereas, the County of Rockingham has had a long and illustrious history, having been formed from Guilford County in 1785; and
Whereas, Rockingham County is the birthplace of six governors of North Carolina; and
Whereas, the history of Rockingham County has been written by Dr. Lindley S. Butler, a competent historian and a resident of Rockingham County; and
Whereas, the Division of Archives and History has, over a period of more than a decade, published seven brief county histories; and
Whereas, the history of Rockingham County would be a valuable addition to the county history series being published by the Division of Archives and History; and
Whereas, such a history would add to the knowledge of school children and adult citizens of North Carolina interested in the heritage of their State; and
Whereas, the manuscript of the history has been accepted for publication but has not yet been published because of the limited budget available for historical publications; Now, therefore,

The General Assembly of North Carolina enacts:

Section 1. There is appropriated from the General Fund to the Department of Cultural Resources, Division of Archives and History, Historical Publications Section, the sum of five thousand dollars ($5,000) for fiscal year 1981‑82, over and above all other appropriations for that section, to aid in the printing of the Rockingham County history.
Sec. 2. The published Rockingham County history shall be sold and distributed as any other publication issued through the Historical Publications Section of the Department of Cultural Resources as provided in G.S. 121‑6.
Sec. 3. This act shall become effective upon ratification.
In the General Assembly read three times and ratified, this the 10th day of October, 1981.
