Overview
This book documents the amazing life history of an early surveyor in North Carolina. William Churton left London, to assist the newly formed Granville District Land Office - as a surveyor. Beginning in 1748, Churton will ultimately survey over 600,000 acres of land - before closing the Land Office in 1763; due to the death of Earl Granville. He was also founder of Hillsborough NC, surveyor and designer of Salisbury, and surveyed/extended the State Line with VA. A lot of western NC Moravian activity as well. This book precipitated the author to apply for a State Historical Marker - honoring Churton. It was approved by the State, May 2017. Marker to be erected in Hillsborough - late October or early November 2017.
