Is anyone familiar with the Primitive Baptist records available at Elon University (used to be Elon College) in Elon, NC (used to be Elon College, NC)?

I'm told some records exist there, and I'm wondering what sort of records are available and if they are available to the general public.

Your help is appreciated.

FYI for anyone planning to do research at Elon College on PBC...

I spoke with a reference librarian at the college library. She tells me Elon College does not hold any records of the PBC.

Guess I've been barking up the wrong tree!
