Just wondering if you had checked out the Yellow Wild Indigo suggestion. Here is a picture from a Duke University teacher's wildflower site. I think it looks like what you have.

Yellow Wild Indigo (Baptisia tinctoria)
Person Co., NC 13 June 2006
Showy yellow flowers blooming from spring to fall, this species is uncommon to fairly common in various dry-soils habitats across the state. It's the most common Baptisia in NC and is recognized by its small leaflets, small flowers, & small fruits. Wild Indigos are caterpillar host plants for a few butterflies including Frosted Elfin and Wild Indigo Duskywing.
