A brief lesson on the history of the Tri-County Originally a part of the state of Virginia, the TriCounty area became a part of the state of Carolina when King Charles II of England redefined the state lines in 1665. Granville County was formed in 1746 and named in honor of John Carteret, the Earl of Granville, who owned the Granville District. Today, Granville County is bounded by Vance, Wake, Durham and Person counties, in addition to the state of Virginia. The present land area of the county is 530 square miles and the estimated population in
2012 was 60,436. The first county seat was called Granville Court House, but in 1748, the location became unsatisfactory. It was ordered that the courthouse be located on a branch of the Tar River called Tabb’s Creek. Oxford become the county seat in 1811 and was incorporated in 1816. Warren County was formed in 1779 and named in honor of Joseph Warren, a soldier from Massachusetts who fell while fighting at Bunker Hill. Today, the county is bounded by Northhampton, Halifax, Franklin and Vance coun-

ties, in addition to the state of Virginia. The present land area is 428 square miles and the estimated population in 2012 was 20, 576. The act establishing the county specified that the first court be held at the courthouse of Bute. It also provided that subsequent courts were to be held at a place decided upon by the justices of the peace until a courthouse could be erected. Commissioners were named to select a site at the center of the county, purchase land and have the courthouse, prison and the stocks erected.
Kindred Healthcare's mission is to promote healing, provide hope, preserve dignity and produce value for each patient, resident, family member, customer, employee and shareholder we serve.
In 1779, another act was passed establishing Warrenton. This act provided that the courts were to be held at the home of Thomas Christmas until the courthouse was built. Warrenton is the county seat. As the area now known as Vance County prospered in the mid-to-late 1800s, the idea of creating a separate county surfaced. After original legislative efforts to name the new county as “Gilliam” and later as “Dortch” failed, the N.C. General Assembly established Vance County on May 5, 1881. The act directed the county com-
missioners to select a site in Henderson for the erection of the courthouse. Vance County was formed from parts of Granville, Warren and Franklin counties. It was named in honor of Zebulon Baird Vance, a member of Congress, governor of North Carolina and a United States senator. Vance County is bounded by Warren, Franklin and Granville counties, along with the state of Virginia. The present land area is 244 square miles and the estimated population in 2012 was 45,132. Henderson is the county seat.

Some fast facts on our area towns Henderson
Henderson is named for Leonard Henderson, who was Chief Justice of the North Carolina Supreme Court and son of Judge Richard Henderson, known as the father of the state’s law schools. The current population of Henderson about 16,000.
Kittrell
When the railroad was built around 1838, George Kittrell gave the land for the station. He refused the honor of having the station named for himself, but gave the honor to his young son. Kittrell is the resting place of 52 Civil War soldiers from the states of Virginia, North and South Carolina and Georgia. All of the soldiers buried in the cemeter y died at the Kittrell Springs Hotel where they were treated during the war.
Townsville
First called L ynesville in recognition of the fact that James L yne had a store between the railroad and the Episcopal Church, Townsville received its current name when the Roanoke railroad was built around 1855. Joseph Townes of Montpelier donated land for the station, which was named in his honor.
Williamsboro
The Indians in the area originally named the Williamsboro area “The Lick,” meaning a good hunting or meeting place. So many hazelnuts were found along a nearby stream bank that it was named “Nutbush” in early colonial records. In 1772, Judge John Williams of Montpelier gave the land to his son-in-law, Col. Robert Burton, who changed the name to Williamsboro in honor of the judge.
Epsom
Epsom sits in the southern edge of Vance County on the Vance/ Franklin county line. For many years, the area was called Duke’s Store since Simon W. Duke had a store there. The residents eventually asked that the store be designated as a post office. Nearby places already had “Duke” in the name. So, another name was needed. Talking in the store one day, a physician noticed a package of Epsom salts on the shelf. “Let’s name it Epsom,” he said, “as the word means ‘healthy,’ and this place is so healthy.”
Oxford
Samuel Benton was Granville County’s representative to the State
Assembly in 1761 when he purchased 1,000 acres of land and built a plantation home known as “Oxford.” In 1764, the Assembly ordered that the area be known as the county seat and Benton gave one acre of land where the courthouse was to be built. Not until 1811 did the Assembly give authorization for the county to purchase 50 additional acres around the courthouse from Thomas Littlejohn, and begin to lay out the town and sell lots. The town was incorporated in 1816. The current population of the town is 8,600.
Stovall
Stovall is the heart of rural Granville County. The town lies about 10 miles north of Oxford and 10 miles south of Clarksville, Va. Originally called Sassafras Fork, the town was situated along the Seaboard Railroad line. It was named for John W. Stovall, who gave the railroad the right-of-way.
Warrenton
The North Carolina Provincial Congress established the town of Warrenton during the fourth year of the American Revolution, . Warrenton has a rich revolutionar y and antebellum
histor y, which is well preser ved. Many homes have been beautifully restored. The Warrenton Academy was chartered in 1786, the Falkener School for Ladies in 1800, and the Mordecai School in 1809, making Warrenton a hub of early educational activity in the area. The town’s population is around 850.
Macon
Macon is the smallest incorporated town in Warren County. In the 1880s, the town’s name was changed to honor Nathaniel Macon, a prominent county native who was elected to the U.S. House of Representatives and the U.S. Senate.
Norlina
Norlina, located just south of the Virginia state line, sits on land that was part of a grant to an early John Langford for his ser vice in the Revolutionar y War. The town is named for a combination of “North” and “Carolina.” A descendent of Langford sold five acres of land in Norlina to the Richmond, Petersburg and Carolina Railroad for the building of a depot at the juncture of the Seaboard Air Line Railway and the RaleighGaston Railroad. Being a railroad juncture, the
town grew rapidly. The population of the town was at its peak just before and during the time of World War II, when the railroad played an important part in the war effort by providing transportation for the troop trains to the seaports at Portsmouth, Va., and Norfolk, Va. A former railroad dining car now ser ves as a railroad museum in the town.
Middleburg
The Hawkins family cut Middleburg out of the woods around 1860. The settlement was “middle way” between Raleigh and Weldon, giving the town it’s name.
Ridgeway
Located in Warren County, Ridgeway was named after the ridge followed by the railroad. The town is best known for its cantaloupes, which are honored annually during the Ridgeway Cantaloupe Festival held on the third Saturday of July in the heart of downtown. Before the advent of the interstate highway system, the town shipped cantaloupes up and down the East Coast along the busy U.S. 1 corridor.

Some notable individuals from the Tri-County area The Tri-County area has been home to many notable citizens throughout its history. From town namesakes to military leaders, from educators to government leaders, and from writers to performers, the list of those who have achieved a name and reputation beyond the boundaries of their home counties is impressive.
Gerald Alston
As an R&B enthusiast will attest, the name Gerald Alston has always been synonymous with soul, elegance and sophistication. Born and raised in Henderson, where both his mother and father sang gospel music, Alston was raised on the gospel music he heard in church and at home (his uncle, Johnny Fields was one of the Five Blind Boys of Alabama). Enroute to a college degree as a pre-med student with music minor, the fates intervened and Alston left college to join The Manhattans as lead singer. After 16 years with the group, Alston left to pursue a solo career in 1987. But he continues to sing with The Manhattans. In 2003, the group released its first studio album in 15 years. The group celebrated its 40th anniversary in 2004.
Braxton Bragg
Gen. Braxton Bragg was born in Warren County in 1817. He graduated fifth in the class of 1837 at the U.S. Military Academy and made his name a household word as a Confederate general during the Civil War. In March 1862, he marched his forces to Corinth, Miss., while in command of the Second Corps of the Confederate Army, where he participated in the movement against Gen. Ulysses S. Grant at Shiloh, Miss. In this famous battle, Gen. Albert Sidney Johnston fell, and Gen. P.G.T. Beauregard succeeded to the gen-
eral command while Bragg was promoted general and assigned to the command of the Army of the Mississippi. After the evacuation of Corinth, the troops retired to Tupelo, Miss., where Beauregard, on account of illness, turned command over to Bragg and left for Mobile, Ala. Beauregard was relieved of duty and Bragg was appointed as his replacement. Bragg was then in command of all of the Confederate forces arrayed against the federal invasion of the area between the Mississippi River and the city of Atlanta. On the last day of 1862 he launched a vicious attack on the Union forces left at Murfreesboro, Tenn., but failed to carry though his success on following days. Later, Bragg was appointed as an advisor to Confederate President Jefferson Davis, his staunch supporter, and maintained an office in Richmond. Ineffective in the position of quasi commander-in-chief, he was dispatched to North Carolina in the waning days of the war, surrendering near Durham Station in 1865. For a time after the war he served as Alabama’ chief engineer and then settled in Galveston, Texas, where he died in 1876 while walking down the street with a friend.
Tiny Broadwick
Between 1908 and 1922, Granville County native and Henderson resident Tiny Broadwick made more than 1,100 parachute jumps from hot air balloon and airplanes, thrilling audiences at fairgrounds all across America and earning herself a place in aviation history. On June 21, 1913, she became the first woman ever to parachute from an airplane, a feat that landed her in the Guinness Book of World Records. She also helped usher in a new era in aviation safety by demonstrating a parachute to the U.S. Army in 1914. Broadwick is considered
one of the founders of modern day sport parachuting. Her parachutes are in the Smithsonian Museum in Washington, D.C., and in the N.C. Museum of History in Raleigh. Born Georgia Ann Thompson on a Granville County farm in 1893, Tiny was the youngest of seven girls and weighed only three pounds at birth, giving rise to her nickname. Falling crop prices forced the family to move to Henderson, where there was work in a cotton mill. At the age of 15, Georgia saw Charles Broadwick’s World Famous Aeronauts parachute from a hot air balloon at the state fairgrounds in Raleigh. With her mother’s permission, she soon joined the traveling show, quickly becoming the sweetheart of crowds around the country. For the sake of decorum, Broadwick adopted her as his daughter. In 1913, pioneering aviator Glenn L. Martin took tiny up in a biplane over Griffith Park in Los Angeles, Calif., where, at a height of 2,000 feet, she released herself from a trap seat, becoming the first woman ever to parachute from an airplane. Her final years were spent traveling to aviation conventions and visiting family back in her hometown. She died in 1978.
Charlotte Hawkins Brown
Charlotte Hawkins Brown’s focus on the education of African Americans led her to begin a school near Greensboro in the early 1900s. Born in Henderson, Brown was a northern educated granddaughter of former slaves. She returned to her home state as a teacher in 1901, and the following year established the Alice Freeman Palmer Memorial Institute in Sedalia, near Greensboro. The African-American school evolved from an agricultural and manual training facility to a fully accredited, nationally recognized preparatory school. More than 1,000 students graduated during Brown’s 50-year presidency. She died in 1961. Ten
years and three administrations later, the school closed. In 1982, Maria Cole, a niece of Brown’s, visited friend and schoolmate Marie Gibbs of Greensboro. Together, they returned to the campus where both had been students and expressed a joint desire for recognition of Brown’s social and educational contributions. They contacted other alumni and met with the N.C. Division of Archives and History to explore the idea of restoring the site of the school. The Charlotte Hawkins Brown Historical Foundation Inc., a non-profit society, was founded. In 1985, the foundation and others convinced the state’s legislators to appropriate $400,000 for land acquisition and initial restoration of the Palmer campus. The site is now a memorial to Brown and is linked to the larger themes of African-American education and women’s history in North Carolina and the South. The restored campus contains a dozen 20th century buildings, ranging from houses to dormitories built between the 1920s and the 1960s. Archeological remains of the Alice Freeman Palmer building, the center of the campus, also survive.
Jason Brown
Jason Brown graduated from Northern Vance High School and is a starting offensive lineman for the St. Louis Rams of the National Football League. Brown was a star center at the University of North Carolina before being drafted by the Baltimore Ravens in the 2005 draft. In 2009, Brown signed a five-year deal with St. Louis, worth $37.5 million, making Brown the highest paid center in the NFL.
Benjamin F. Chavis Jr.
Benjamin Franklin Chavis Jr. has spent his life as an African-American civil rights and religious leader. He was born in Oxford in 1948 and was
The Daily Dispatch
a youth coordinator for the Southern Christian Leadership Conference. In the late 70s, he was one of 10 men wrongly imprisoned after leading a Wilmington demonstration. A minister in the United Church of Christ, he headed that denomination’s Commission for Racial Justice (1985-93). In 1993, he was appointed as director of the NAACP. Controversy surrounding his leadership and his handling of sexual harassment and discrimination charges led to his dismissal the following year. In 1994-95, he was the director of the Million Man March in Washington. In 1997, he became a Black Muslim and changed his surname from Chavis to Muhammad.
Richard Henderson
Richard Henderson was a lawyer and Superior Court judge in North Carolina from 1768-1773 and was also a member of the North Carolina State Legislature. He was a pioneer and colonizer in North Carolina, Tennessee and Kentucky, and organized what became known as the Transylvania Land Company, which made treaties with the Cherokee Indians. Henderson hired Daniel Boone as an advance agent to blaze a trail through the Cumberland Gap. He died in Granville County on Jan. 30, 1785. The town of Henderson was actually named for Richard Henderson’s son, Chief Justice Leonard Henderson, who was an outstanding colonial jurist and native of Henderson.
Ben E. King
Ben E. King, born Benjamin Earl Nelson, is perhaps best known as the singer and co-composer of “Stand by Me,” a U.S. top 10 hit in both 1961 and 1987, and as one of the principal lead singers of the R&B vocal group The Drifters. Nelson was born in Henderson and moved to Harlem at the age of nine. In 1958, he joined a “doo wop” group called The Five Crowns. Later that year, The Drifters’ manager fired the members of the group and replaced them with The Five Crowns, who had performed several engagements with the Drift-
A Guide for Newcomers ers. Nelson co-wrote the first hit by the new version of the Drifters, “There Goes My Baby” (1959). He also sang lead, using his birth name, on “Save the Last Dance for Me”, a song written by Doc Pomus and Mort Shuman; “Dance With Me;” “This Magic Moment;” “I Count the Tears;” and “Lonely Winds.” King only recorded ten songs with The Drifters. In 1960, he left The Drifters after failing to gain a salary increase and what he felt to be a fairer share of the group’s royalties. At this point, he assumed the more memorable stage name Ben E. King in preparation for a successful solo career. Remaining on Atlantic Records, King scored his first solo hit with the ballad “Spanish Harlem” (1961). “Stand by me” was his next recording. Written by King along with Jerry Leiber and Mike Stoller, “Stand by me” was voted one of the “Songs of the Century” by the Recording Industry Association of America. “Stand by Me,” “There Goes My Baby,” and “Spanish Harlem” were named as three of The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame’s “500 Songs that Shaped Rock and Roll” and were all given a Grammy Hall of Fame Award, as well as “Save The Last Dance For Me.” In the summer of 1963, King had a top 30 national hit with “I (Who Have Nothing),” a song that reached the Top 10 on New York’s radio station, WMCA. Currently, King is active in his charitable foundation, the Stand By Me Foundation. He has been a resident of Teaneck, N.J., since the late 1960s.
Sammy Jackson
Sammy Jackson (1937 - April 24, 1995) was an American actor known particularly for his roles reflecting rural life. Born in Henderson, Jackson wished to be an actor and moved to California working as a shipping clerk but was contracted to Warner Brothers where he appeared saying one line in the Andy Griffith film “No Time for Sergeants.” He soon appeared in the syndicated American Civil War drama “Gray Ghost” and
on the Warner Brothers Television series “77 Sunset Strip” starring Efrem Zimbalist Jr., and opposite James Garner in the TV series, “Maverick.” When Jackson read that Warner Brothers was going to produce a 1964 ABC television sitcom, “No Time for Sergeants,” he wrote directly to Jack Warner saying that he was the best choice for the role and asked Warner to examine a certain “Maverick” episode as proof. Ten days later, Jackson was told to come to the studio to test for the role. Jackson won the role over several actors, including the better-known Will Hutchins, a Warner Brothers Television contract star who formerly played the sympathetic Sugarfoot and also had been in the “No Time for Sergeants” film. With film roles for “hillbillies” drying up, Jackson began working on-air in radio in 1968 while also acting in a number of motion pictures and doing guest roles in television series. In the 1980s, Jackson worked for a radio station in Las Vegas and briefly played non-country music on KMPC, Los Angeles. In 1992, he appeared in the pilot film, “Casino.” Jackson died of heart failure.
Nathaniel Macon
Nathaniel Macon was a representative and senator from North Carolina. He was born near Warrenton. Macon attended the College of New Jersey (now Princeton University) and served in the Revolutionary War. He served in the State Senate and was elected to the first Continental Congress, but declined to serve. He did serve in the second through the 12th Congresses, and was elected Speaker of the House of Representatives for the seventh through the ninth Congresses. Macon left the House when he was elected a Republican senator. He served as a senator from December 1815 through November 1828. He was an unsuccessful candidate for vice president of the United States in 1825. He died at Buck Spring near Macon in Warren County in 1837, where he is buried.

Fred Owens
The voice of Broadway actor Frederick B. Owens is more recognizable that his face. The Henderson native has made a successful career of doing voice over work for cartoons and commercials. Owens has starred as a principal member of the cast of “Smokey Joe’s Cafe” on Broadway and as Caiaphas in “Jesus Christ Superstar.” Owens also has an impressive series of television parts to his credit, including guest roles on “Law & Order: Special Victims’ Unit,” “Ed,” “The Education of Max Bickford,” and “Swift Justice.”
John Penn
John Penn represented North Carolina at the Continental Congress and was one of the 56 signers of the Declaration of Independence. While born in Virginia, he moved to Granville County in 1774, where he established a law practice and soon became a gentleman members of the political community. He was elected to attend the provincial Congress in 1775 and elected to the Continental Congress the same year, where he served until 1780. He declined a judgeship in his native state due to declining health, but returned to the practice of law in his retirement. He died at the age of 48.

Often called North Carolina’s “literary godfather,” Sam Ragan was for more than 50 years one of the state’s leading men of letters. The newspaper editor who gave legendary news anchor David Brinkley his first reporter’s job in Wilmington was also the North Carolina Poet Laureate. As
North Carolina’s first secretary of the Department of Cultural Resources and first chairman of the North Carolina Arts Council, Ragan helped make the arts in his home state accessible to a wide and varied audience. Born in Granville County, Ragan started writing poetry in grade school. After a stint in San Antonio, Texas, as a reporter, Ragan returned in 1941 as the state editor for The News and Observer in Raleigh where, in 1948, he began writing his trademark column, “Southern Accent.” Except for three years of service in the Army, he remained at The News and Observer as executive and managing editor until 1968, when he purchased the Southern Pines weekly newspaper, The Pilot. He continued to publish The Pilot until his death, continuing to write “Southern Accent,” a column that featured poems, anecdotes and literary criticism, along with social commentary. The oldest and longest running column in the United States, it was read in 43 states and 24 foreign
countries. Ragan, the poet, published six collections of verse, two of which were nominated for Pulitzer Prizes, and four works of nonfiction. Ragan was appointed as the state’s Poet Laureate in 1982.
Charlie Rose
Emmy Award-winning television journalist Charlie Rose entered the news field in 1974 when he became the managing editor of the PBS series, “Bill Moyers’ International Report.” He later worked with Moyers on two other series, “Bill Moyers’ Journal” and “USA: People and Politics.” From 1984 to 1990, he anchored “Nightwatch,” the CBS television network’s late-night interview series, and won for himself what some observers have described as a cult following for the in-depth conversations that have since earned him a reputation as “the best interviewer around today.” Rose was born in Henderson in 1942. He earned a law degree from Duke University in 1968, but decided not to pursue
2013-2014
a career in law. Rose moved to New York to pursue other business interests, and through his wife, who was doing research for the CBS television program “60 Minutes,” he became friendly with people employed in the broadcasting industry. Rose met Bill Moyers at a social gathering in 1974, and the two felt an instant chemistry. Within weeks, he began working with Moyers as the managing editor of his PBS series “Bill Moyers’ International Report.” After Moyers left PBS for CBS, Rose accepted a job as a political correspondent with NBC News. Rose went from there to Dallas-Fort Worth, Texas, where he had the opportunity to launch a talk show called “The Charlie Rose Show.” In 1981, he secured national syndication for the show and moved his broadcast studio to Washington, D.C. After two years, CBS hired him in 1983 to anchor “Nightwatch,” an interview program aired in the early morning hours five days a week. After a stint as anchor of another program, Rose approached

Thad Stem
Thad Stem, described as “the last great poet of small town America,” lived all his life in North Carolina, most of it in Oxford where he was born. After college and Army service in WWII, he began writing poetry in 1943-44. In 1945, nine of his poems were published in a single issue of Lyric, a Roanoke, Va., magazine. He continued to write sporadically until this marriage to a widow with a young son in 1947. “I suddenly realized that I had to get serious,” he would later say, and he began producing as many as 15,000 words a week, writing newspaper articles, essays, poems and short fiction. He sold an estimated 8,0000 short pieces to North Carolina newspapers, including The News and
A Guide for Newcomers Observer and The Pilot in Southern Pines. Over the next two decades, he published 11 more books. In the last two years of his life, despite kidney failure that required weekly dialysis, he continued to produce articles, short stories, editorials and “Thad Stem’s Ark,” a collection of essays, poems and a story. His home state honored him with the North Carolina Award for Literature in 1974.

James Edwin Webb
James Edwin Webb was born in 1906 in the Tally Ho community of Granville County. He was the second administrator of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), serving from 1961 to 1968. Webb came to the position after a long career in public service in Washington, D.C. Under his direction at NASA, the agency undertook the goal of President John F. Kennedy to land an American on the moon before the end of the decade. Webb used his Washington connections to fight for support for NASA and was ultimately able to acquire continued support for and the resources to accomplish the Apollo moon landing on schedule. After retiring from NASA, Webb remained in Washington, serving on several advisory boards, including as a regent of the Smithsonian Institution. He died in 1992 and is buried at Arlington National Cemetery. NASA named the James Webb Space Tele-

Ruth Russell Williams
Internationally known folk artist Ruth Russell Williams was born in 1932 in Townsville. The daughter of sharecroppers, she started painting after her four children left for college. “I got lonesome, so I started dabbling. I didn’t know I had talent. I was just doing something to entertain myself,” Williams said. She would see her work exhibited numerous times, purchased for nationally televised programs, and one piece, “Outdoor Baptism,” appeared on the cover of the Smithsonian magazine. The majority of Williams’ paintings involve storytelling, with scenes like picking plums and grapes, eating watermelon, playing baseball and gossiping. She single-handedly developed a regional, national and international reputation through an annual art exhibition held at her own home in the Williamsboro community. She died in 2010.
