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.
