History

History of Halifax County

Occupied by varying cultures of indigenous peoples for thousands of years, in historic times English colonists encountered Native Americans. Halifax County was established in 1752 by English colonists from Lunenburg County. The county was named for George Montagu-Dunk, 2nd Earl of Halifax. Through the 1990 Census, South Boston was an independent city, but it became a town again and rejoined Halifax County in 1995.
