John Lawson Legacy Days
|
John Lawson Legacy Days, November 7-8, 2014, is an event held in Grifton, North Carolina, on Contentnea Creek, celebrating the rich history of the region. It gets its name from John Lawson (1674-1711), a British explorer, writer, naturalist and surveyor, who visited the area and was killed nearby in the village of Catechna by the Tuscarora Indians. Legacy Days celebrates the full range of area history, including the earliest Native Americans, European settlement, colonial times, the American Revolution and the Civil War.
