Before there was Asheville, there was Morristown.
In the 1790s, a small frontier settlement began taking shape in the mountains of newly formed Buncombe County. John Burton laid out 42 half-acre lots along an old north-south route, helping establish the framework of a town that would eventually become the largest city in Western North Carolina.
But these mountains already had a much older history. They stood within the ancient homeland of the Cherokee, along routes traveled long before surveyors drew streets or settlers established a county seat.
In this episode of Echoes of the Blue Ridge, we trace Asheville's beginnings from Cherokee homeland and mountain crossroads to Morristown, its 1797 renaming in honor of Governor Samuel Ashe, and the early work of John Burton, remembered as the Father of Asheville.
Before the hotels, the railroad, and the city skyline, Asheville was little more than a collection of lots surrounded by mountains.
And the story of the city we know today began there.
