The Society's Rutherford County Marriage Collection

Marriage bonds were created prior to 1868. Beginning in 1868 marriage licenses were created instead. Since 1851 marriages were also recorded in marriage registers. For an example of a bond, click here.  For an example of a license, click here.  For an example of a register, click here.  Note that the register does not provide all of the information that is recorded on the license. The amount of data recorded on licenses also varies across time. The Society has paper copies of most Rutherford County marriage licenses from about 1868 to 1961. Copies of licenses in our collection may be obtained from the Society. Call or write for details. To find out if a license for which you are searching existed, you can check our index of all Rutherford marriage bonds and licenses from 1779 to 1961. Click here. It should be noted that a few marriage licenses are missing. However, they are still listed in the index since the marriages are recorded in the marriage registers. We also have microfilm of Rutherford County marriage bonds from 1779 to 1868.

The Society's Rutherford County Death Certificate Collection

Death certificates began to be recorded in small towns in Rutherford County in 1909, but death certificates for the entire county were not recorded until about 1914. The Society has paper copies of the county copies of Rutherford County death certificates through 1954. The information on the county copies will in most cases match that on the state copies. However, there are differences occasionally. Also, if the state copy is difficult to read, the county copy may not be (and vice-versa). Copies of the county copies in our collection may be obtained from the Society. Call or write for details. To find out if a death certificate for which you are searching exists, you can check our index of all Rutherford County copies of death certificates from 1909 to 1954. Click here.

The Western Boundary of Tryon County

Following the 1763 end of the French and Indian War efforts were made to firmly establish the boundary between Indian lands and the western parts of North Carolina and South Carolina.   Land between the Catawba and Broad Rivers was ceded to North Carolina by the Catawba Indians in 1763 by the Treaty of Augusta (Georgia).   Based upon an agreement of 20 October 1765 the Treaty of Fort Prince George in 1766 established the boundary between Indian lands and South Carolina (as far north as Reedy River since at the time lands northeast of there were claimed by North Carolina).   North Carolina began serious efforts to establish its western boundary with the Cherokee Indians in 1767 and the boundary was ratified 14 October 1768 by the Treaty of Hard Labor.   The essential documents of Governor Tryon may be viewed at the following links to his papers at the N. C. Archives (links will open in new tabs or windows).   The western boundary agreement may be viewed on five frames here.   The 16 July 1767 proclamation by King George III to Governor Tryon which includes prohibition of settlements on the Indian lands may be viewed on two frames here.   Governor Tryon's proclamation to the colony with the same date may be viewed on two frames here.   The 14 October 1768 Treaty of Hard Labor may be viewed on five frames here.   Not by coincidence, a new county was created out of the western part of Mecklenburg County shortly after the Treaty of Hard Labor and was named for Governor William Tryon.   For all practical purposes the western boundary of Tryon County was extended farther west as part of the Treaty of Long Island (Holston River) 20 July 1777 by which the Cherokee Indians ceded lands east of the Blue Ridge Mountains to North Carolina.   This is reflected in the description of Rutherford County made in the bill to divide Tryon County (see below).

The Northern Boundary of Tryon County

By the Carolina Charter of 24 March 1663 Charles II awarded to eight of his supporters land from Virginia to Florida.   Seven of the eight Lords Proprietors sold their interests back to the Crown 25 July 1729.   One proprietor John, Lord Carteret, later Earl of Granville, refused to surrender his interest.   By the recommendation of a special commission, on 6 December 1743 it was decided that Lord Carteret's lands would be those south of the Virginia boundary extending south to 35 degrees 34 minutes north latitude.   This huge tract of land became known as the Granville District.   When Rowan County was created out of Anson County in 1753 its southern boundary coincided with the southern boundary of the Granville District.   Land south of that Rowan County boundary west of the Catawba River became part of Mecklenburg County when it was created out of Anson County 1 February 1763.   This resulted in 1769 in the northern boundary of newly created Tryon County being part of the southern line of the Granville District as well.   Consequently a small portion of present Lincoln, Cleveland, and Rutherford Counties was in Rowan County in the Granville District and not part of Tryon County.

The Eastern Boundary of Tryon County

The act creating Tryon County designated its eastern boundary to be the Catawba River extending south to the boundary with South Carolina.   In 1764 that South Carolina boundary east of the Catawba River had been determined to be the line including the present southern boundaries of the counties of Anson and Union (NC).   Therefore the eastern boundary of Tryon County extended only as far south as an area near the southeast corner of present York County, South Carolina.   Assertions that the 1764 line should have been much farther north resulted in the 1772 agreement giving South Carolina the part of Tryon County south of the present NC-SC boundary and known at the time as the New Acquisition.

The Southern Boundary of Tryon County

With no specification being made of its southern boundary, by default it became what was then an as-yet-undetermined South Carolina boundary west of the Catawba River.   That boundary would have extended in some manner from the southern end of the western boundary on the Reedy River to the southern end of the eastern boundary on the Catawba River.   It would be problematic for settlers in the southern section of Tryon County to know whether they resided in North Carolina or South Carolina.   If they considered themselves residents of South Carolina they would have been residents of Craven County in that state and part of either Camden District or 96 District (even though they may not have been).

The Tryon County Charter

At the N. C. Archives in Secretary of State series S. S. XVIII (Recordkeeping, Miscellaneous), formerly in S. S. 906 (Miscellaneous Papers), is the Charter for Tryon County dated 26 June 1769, giving inhabitants of the county full Power and absolute Authority as heretofore accustomed and directed within our said Province to Name and Elect and send two Representatives for the said County to be present, set and Vote in the House of Assembly of our said Province of North Carolina ...   See the August 2012 Bulletin, p. 135.

Petition of Burke County Residents Asking to Be Added to Lincoln County, ca. 1782

Although the Christmas 1778 petition and the 1779 petitions of some residents of Burke County in the area of what is now Catawba County had not succeeded, another petition to the General Assembly circa 1782 asked for the line between Burke County and Lincoln County to begin at the Horse Ford on Catawba River & run thence to John Hauns on Henry’s River thence to William Orr’s on Jacobs River & thence to the Intersection of the Counties of Burke, Lincoln & Rutherford as they now stand.

Bill and Act Annexing Part of Burke County to Rutherford County, 1786-1787

An act was passed by the General Assembly on 6 January 1787 adding part of Burke County to Rutherford County.  No associated petition has been located.   The area encompassed part of what is now known as Golden Valley in Rutherford County as well as northern parts of what is now Cleveland County.  The reason for the change was that due to a ledge of mountains that divide the waters of first Little Broad river from the waters of Silver and Cain creeks, it is extremely difficult for the inhabitants on the south side of the said ledge to attend at the court house of the county of Burke.  Consequently, all that part of the county of Burke lying to the southeast of the aforesaid mountains so as to include all of first Little Broad river, shall be, and the same is hereby annexed to and declared to be within the county of Rutherford.  The handwritten bill of 5 December 1786 may be viewed on three frames of General Assembly Session Records, Nov. 1786-Jan. 1787, by linking to the N. C. Archives.  Click here.   (The link will open in a new tab or window.)  For information on persons who received or attempted to receive Burke County land grants in the area impacted by this act click here.
