History
Formed in 1828 from Lee. County
An old deed may name a county that no longer exists, or a boundary that has since moved.
Randolph County was named after John Randolph of Roanoke. The county has been adjusted multiple times: it lost territory to the creation of Stewart County in 1830, gained it back in 1833, and later lost land to the creation of Clay, Calhoun, and Terrell Counties.
