Two photographs of the Homestead of Captain James Outlaw, Duplin County, North Carolina.
The original house had an addition with porches added.
It is vacant but the local preservationists are hoping
that someone will get interested in it.
This James Outlaw appears to be the son of an Edward Outlaw from Bertie County that migrated from Bertie County to Johnston County and then to New Hanover County
