Abstract:

North Carolina's 100 counties vary in age from pre-Revolutionary War to early twentieth-century. In fact, thirty-two of the counties pre-date the Revolutionary War, while four of the counties pre-date 1700. North Carolina counties can also be organized into seven general eras dictated by exploration, war, population growth and movement, geographic conditions, and industrial development.
