Abstract:
Home to a variety of predominately Caucasian inhabitants since 1690, Yadkin County has grown in population as well as in industry. Affected by the American Revolutionary War as well as the Civil War, frontier conditions existed in this region well into the 19th-century. Establishing their first newspaper in 1858, followed by four tobacco factories continuously operating through 1915, Yadkin County contains natural and industrial assets within the 335 square miles in which it occupies.
