Koonts, Russell S.

Abstract:

Koonts discusses the interesting connection between Arthur Dobbs, the royal governor of North Carolina; James Glasgow, the first North Carolina secretary of state; and General Nathaniel Greene, the Revolutionary War hero. Present-day Greene County at one time bore the name of each man. Koonts discusses how the name changes occurred.
