With edges along the Carolina border and the Lumber River, Scotland County boasts features reminiscent of the country for which it was named. But the county has held fast to much more than kilts and bagpipes; its Scottish heritage is entwined with aspects of other cultures to produce a rich palate of local history, stories, and legends. Although a relatively young county, having been formed in 1899 from Richmond County, the land has been inhabited for centuries and maybe longer. Several writers believe that when North Carolina became a royal colony in 1729, Scottish Highlanders were already living in the area. Scotland County serves as a testimony to the lives and experiences of county residents, past and present. Local heroes, important streets, businesses, schools, and churches, which have all helped to shape the county's identity, come to life through word and image within the pages of this volume. Longtime residents and newcomers alike are sure to find themselves captivated by the photographs and accompanying captions that celebrate the county's coming of age.
