History & genealogy of Vance County, NC
 |
Formed in 1881, Vance County is one of North
Carolina's youngest counties. Its formation was political in
nature, designed to aid the Democratic Party. There's a link to
more information about the formation and naming of the county on
the resources
page of the
website. This site is designed to assist those interested in the history of Vance County, as well as researchers seeking documentation of ancestors who lived in Vance. Ultimately, as your research moves to the period preceding 1881, you will find it necessary to research other counties. For this reason, some resources for counties other than Vance are provided. Obviously, any event occurring before 1881 (a birth, a marriage, a death), did not occur in Vance County, although it may have occurred in an area that would become Vance. Navigation links at the top of each page will help guide you through the website. "Home" will always return you to this page. The "resources" page contains the list of links to all internal pages of the ~ncvance website. Disclaimer: please note this website contains links to external websites which may be useful for Vance County research. However, ~ncvance has no control over - or responsibility for - the content of those websites. Please let me know if you find broken links, or if any link leads you to objectionable material.
