Abstract:
Charles Griffith, a clergyman and the first teacher in North Carolina, opened a school in Pasquotank County in 1705. His success with the town people was noted in a letter from missionary William Gordon to British officials in 1708. Griffith left the school in 1709 and later taught Indians along the Nottoway River in Virginia.
