Abstract:
Formed in 1777 as the smallest county in North Carolina, Camden exudes a history that includes agriculture, industry, and a booming economy shut down by the establishment of Elizabeth City. Once a part of Pasquotank County, Camden played a role in constructing the Dismal Swamp Canal. Bitterly divided during the Civil War, Camden revitalized slowly by constructing a new courthouse, diversifying agricultural production, and constructing better roads.
