FCHA MISSION STATEMENT
There has been little researching, preserving, and interpreting of Forsyth County’s non-Moravian
history from the colonial period to the present. Therefore, the county is missing a large part of its
history. Through the establishment of a Forsyth County Historical Association, we plan to research,
preserve, interpret, and portray our uniqueness as a county in the context of its interaction with the
upper Piedmont region.
During the past two and one-half centuries there has been considerable movement of individuals
and families between Forsyth County and adjoining counties. Important interchange existed in the
region. The Forsyth County Historical Association of North Carolina will serve as a vital resource for
the county’s residents, who mostly have little understanding of and thus hardly any identification
with their past. The most important element of this historical association will be the presentation of
contributions by county leadership and ordinary citizens, implementing various historical
categories: economic, political, social, and religious. The aim of this approach is to spark
enthusiasm and elicit support from a broader audience.
