A Rich History Rooted in Community

Established in 1851 and named after President Andrew Jackson, Jackson County has a deep history of growth and development. The county courts were initially held at the Dan Bryson Home in the Beta Community before moving to Webster in 1852.

Over time, Jackson County played a key role in the formation of neighboring counties, including Transylvania County (1861) and Swain County (1871). In 1913, Sylva became the official county seat, further strengthening the region’s commitment to progress and community development.
