Trull Family History

Researching the Trull family, of Union Co., NC, USA

Welcome! This website focuses on my branches of the Trull, Hargett, Shuman, Smith, and Broom families, all of Union County, North Carolina (or Anson/Mecklenburg Co., before Union was established in 1842). I plan to continue expanding this site to other branches of my family tree in the future.

You will also find a list of my cemetery surveys and some tools that I have found helpful in my research.

This page is a work in progress! I have recently created this website and am working a little every week to get all my research added.

I have created this website in order to share all of my research in one place without the need for others to create any accounts or pay fees. Much of this info is sourced from free records shared to FamilySearch.org (such as census records and vital records), newspaper articles, my own visits to cemeteries, my family's personal photo collection, and information passed down from my older relatives.

I strive for accuracy, so please email me if you see something documented incorrectly! Please share your source(s) with me as well, if possible. I make an effort to cite my sources (even for info that was passed down orally) and be clear when I'm sharing info that is speculative.

Please feel free to reach out with any additional information, comments, or corrections.
