History
The
colonial government established Person County as part of
Edgecombe County in 1746. County designations kept changing, and it was part of
Granville County from 1746 to 1752; included in
Orange County until 1778; and part of
Caswell County until 1791/1792. By dividing Caswell County into two squares–each side measuring approximately twenty (20) miles in length, the state formed two counties of each. The county was named after
Brigadier General Thomas Person, a
Revolutionary War patriot, who made significant contributions to Person County and surrounding areas.
The area was first inhabited by
Native Americans more than 10,000 years ago. An ancient lithic quarry, the
Two Dogs Site, is located in present-day Person County, North Carolina.
The Indigneous tribes encountered here by early Spanish explorers were generally
Siouan-speaking, including the
Saponi,
Occaneechi, and other groups.

Battle of Camden. He was captured and held on the prison ship ''Torbay''. In 1775-1776 he had purchased property in the south of Person County and named his plantation Mt. Tirzah. His home, constructed in 1778, has been renovated recently. Stephen Moore was buried in the family cemetery.

J.A. Long established Peoples Bank in 1891 and the
Roxboro Cotton Mill in 1899, later known as Tultex Yarns. His home at Roxboro, the

Collins and Aikman Corporation (C&A), becoming a major industry in Person County for several decades before closing in August 2006. Textile manufacturers have moved to other locations in the US and overseas.
