On Tuesday, Nov. 1 at 2:30 p.m. at the Polk County Historical Museum in Columbus, Alice Bradley will talk about early Tryon County.
Bradley is president of the Old Tryon County Genealogical Society of Rutherfordton.
Polk County was originally part of Tryon County and then became part of Rutherford County before becoming Polk County. Many records of Polk County prior to 1855 can be found in the Rutherford County records, which can sometimes cause confusion when searching for specific records of deeds, deaths, weddings and births as well as census figures.
Everyone is welcome.
