Washington County, located in the northeastern part of North Carolina, was established on June 11, 1799, when it was formed from part of Tyrrell County. It was named in honor of George Washington, the first President of the United States. The county seat, Plymouth, was incorporated in 1823 and served as a significant port and trading center along the Roanoke River. Plymouth played a crucial role throughout the 19th century in the timber and cotton industries.

Washington County's history is marked by its involvement in the Civil War. The Battle of Plymouth, fought from April 17-20, 1864, was one of the Confederacy's last major victories in the Eastern Theatre of the war. The Confederate ironclad CSS Albemarle was constructed in a shipyard in Washington County and helped the Confederacy regain control of the Roanoke River during the battle.

A fun fact about Washington County is that it is home to the Pocosin Lakes National Wildlife Refuge. This refuge, established in 1990, spans over 110,000 acres and provides a vital habitat for migratory waterfowl, wading birds, and other wildlife species. Pocosin Lakes NWR is also a popular destination for birdwatching, as it is home to one of the largest concentrations of wintering tundra swans and snow geese on the Atlantic Flyway.
