HELP SAVE HERITAGE PLACE
There has been a movement to relocate and change Heritage Place. This facility is one of the best genealogical research sites in the state. To lose this facility by having it changed to something less than what it is today would be a lost for researchers, the college and the community. Please contact the administration and trustees of Lenoir Community College and the leaders in Kinston and Lenoir County to voice your support of this wonderful research center.
