History of Pamlico County
The area eventually comprising Pamlico County was first settled by European colonists in the early 1700s. As its swampy land proved hostile to agriculture, population would grow slowly, with early residents relying heavily on the naval stores trade. The first communities coalesced in the early 1800s. The area experienced economic growth during the Reconstruction era. Pamlico County was formed by white supremacists in the North Carolina General Assembly in 1872 from eastern portions of Beaufort and Craven counties to further their political interests. It was named for the Pamlico Sound, which adjoins it, which itself was named for a Native American tribe. According to David Leroy Corbitt, the county court convened at a store Vandemere until 1876, when the town of Bayboro was designated the county seat.
