iards called the village Salamanca in honor of the city of Salamanca in western Spain, and established a mission, headed by a secular priest named Sebastin Montero. Pardo returned to Spain in 1568,[3] and the Native Americans massacred all but one soldier at the six forts Pardo had established in the interior. The Spanish never returned to the area.[4][5]English colonial settlement of North Carolina came decades later, starting with the coastal areas, the settlers moving south from Virginia. Explorers and fur traders were the first to reach the Piedmont, paving the way for eventual settlers. Rowan County was formed in 1753 from the northern part of Anson County. It was named for Matthew Rowan, acting governor of North Carolina from 1753 to 1754. It was intended to incorporate all of the lands of the Granville District that had been included in Anson County.[6]As was typical of the time, Rowan County was originally a vast territory with an indefinite western boundary. Reductions in the county's size began in 1770, when the eastern porton was combined with the western part of Orange County to form Guilford County. In 1771 the northeastern portion of what was left became Surry County. In 1777 the western part of Rowan County became Burke County.[7]After the American Revolutionary War, in 1788 the western portion of the now much smaller Rowan County was organized as Iredell County, and in 1822 the eastern part became Davidson County. Finally, in 1836 that part of Rowan County north of the South Yadkin River became Davie County and Rowan County was reduced to its present size.[7]The county has worked to attract new industries since much of the textile industry moved offshore in the late 20th and early 21st centuries. The "250 Fest", celebrating the 250th anniversary of Rowan County, was held in 2003.[8]Area informationEast Spencer is a town in Rowan County, North Carolina, United States.
