Granville County, NC became an independent
county, of 531.12 square miles, in 1746. The
land was home to many Indian tribes, but
primarily the
Tuscarora, until around 1711 when settlers
from Virginia began to dominate the area. By the
mid 1800s, Granville County plantations and
farms had some of NC's best agriculturists,
consistently growing large crops of tobacco.
Oxford, now the county seat, was described
as "one of the prettiest towns in all the
country," over a century ago. That description
still holds true.
