Formation and Divisions

McDowell County was created in 1842 from Burke and Rutherford Counties.


Status of Records

As far as I know, McDowell County has suffered no major record losses.

I have been to and through McDowell County many times, but have never made it to the Court House to do any research. All my research there (so far) has been "remote" via the NC Archives or via published records.
