NC Highway Historical Markers
"In 1935, the General Assembly authorized the establishment of the North Carolina Highway Historical Marker Program (Public Laws, Chapter 197)... The silver and black markers have become a familiar part of the state's landscape since the first one was put in place in Granville County on January 10, 1936. To date over 1,400 state markers have been erected. At least one stands in every county." ~ North Carolina Highway Historical Marker Program
