About Asheville, North Carolina
Asheville is a city of 94,589 people and the seat of Buncombe County, where the French Broad and Swannanoa rivers meet. The Cherokee used the ground at the meeting of the rivers for hunting and gatherings, and they called it Tokiyasdi, meaning "Where they race." White settlers began arriving in 1784, after the Revolution. Buncombe County was formed in 1792, and its seat was laid out as Morristown the next year on high ground where two Indian trails met. In 1797 the town was incorporated and renamed Asheville for Governor Samuel Ashe.
The Western North Carolina Railroad finished its line from Salisbury on October 3, 1880, and it was the first railroad to reach the city. Textile mills and other factories followed, and by 1900 Asheville was the third-largest city in North Carolina. Then the Great Depression struck. Eight local banks failed on November 20, 1930, and the city carried the highest debt per person in the nation. Asheville paid off its bonds over fifty years instead of defaulting. Because so little was rebuilt in those lean years, its downtown kept one of the country's finest groups of Art Deco buildings.
- The Battle of Asheville, 1865Fighting came to Asheville only in early April 1865, on the ground where the University of North Carolina at Asheville stands today. Old and young Confederate reserves, joined by recovering soldiers, held trenches across the Buncombe Turnpike, and the Union force pulled back to Tennessee. Later that month Union troops of the 3rd North Carolina Mounted Infantry, under Gen. George Stoneman, took the town. When the 2,700 men left, hundreds of freed slaves went with them.
- George Avery's cemeteryGeorge Avery was one of 40 enslaved people known to have left with the Union troops for Tennessee, where he joined the U.S. Colored Troops. Discharged in 1866, he returned to Asheville, and his former enslaver, William W. McDowell, hired him to run the South Asheville Cemetery, a public burial ground for Black residents. By its last burial in 1943 it held an estimated 2,000 people. It is North Carolina's oldest and largest such cemetery.
- The state's first streetcarsAsheville opened the first electric street railway line in North Carolina in 1889. The streetcars kept running until 1934, when buses took their place.
- Burton Street and West AshevilleIn the 1910s and 1920s, Rutherford P. Hayes, a son of President Rutherford B. Hayes, bought land here. He worked with Edward W. Pearson Sr., a leading African-American businessman, to build the homes that became the Burton Street Community. Hayes also pushed for a sanitary district in West Asheville, which became a town in 1913 and joined Asheville in 1917.
