RANDOLPH COUNTY 

Randolph County was created by Act of Dec. 20, 
1828 from Lee County. Originally Randolph 
County included all of what is now Stewart 
and Quitman and part of Terrell and Clay 
Counties. It was named for "John Randolph of 
Roanoke" (1773-1833), Virginia statesman, for 
many years a member of the House of Repre- 
sentatives and Senate. He actively opposed 
the War of 1812 and the Missouri Compromise. 
First officers of this County, commissioned Jan. 
12, 1830, were: Michael H. Hinch, Sheriff; 
Thomas R. Mangham, Clerk Superior Court; 
John M. Dennis, Clerk Inferior Court; Arnold E. 
Bloodworth, Surveyor; Joseph Day, Coroner.
