Warren County North Carolina Map

Warren county was formed in 1779 from the northern half of Bute County. It was named for Joseph Warren of Massachusetts, a physician and general in the American Revolutionary War who was killed at the Battle of Bunker Hill. The plantations in the county grew cotton and tobacco crops. It was during 1881 that parts of Warren, Franklin and Granville Counties were combined to form Vance County. The county seat is Warrenton, North Carolina.
