Montgomery County, located in the Piedmont region of North Carolina, was formed in 1779 and named in honor of Richard Montgomery, an American Revolutionary War general who fought bravely until his death in the 1775 Battle of Quebec. The county seat, Troy, was established in 1843 and serves as the center of government and commerce for the region. Montgomery County is known for its rich Native American history, with the Pee Dee River forming its eastern border and offering many archaeological sites showcasing Native American artifacts.
The area originally consisted of large tracts of fertile land and was primarily settled by Scots-Irish and German immigrants who were drawn to its thriving agriculture and forestry industries. During the 19th century, gold mining became an important industry in the region, with the Russell Gold Mine considered one of the richest mines in the North Carolina Gold Rush.
In the 20th century, the county saw significant growth and industrialization with the establishment of textile mills, brick plants, and potteries. Montgomery County also valued its natural resources and built several dams along the Yadkin River, developing hydroelectric power to meet the needs of growing industries and communities.
