Happy to assist here (we can do preparations off-list):

- Spearfish:
  https://grass.osgeo.org/download/data/#SpearFishDataset
  --> Original documentation from 1993:
https://grass.osgeo.org/sampledata/spearDB.pdf

- North Carolina: see e.g.
  https://grassbook.org/datasets/datasets-1st-edition/
  https://grassbook.org/datasets/datasets-2nd-edition/
  https://grassbook.org/datasets/datasets-3rd-edition/
  There are different versions available starting from 2002 (GRASS GIS
5, 6, 7) which IMHO should all be tracked.

Best,
Markus
