Brief
History:
Randolph county was organized
January 22, 1829. Randolph County was
primarily settled by migrants from the
Upper
Southern states, especially Kentucky
and Tennessee. They brought slaves and
slaveholding traditions with them, and
quickly
started cultivating crops similar to
those in Middle Tennessee and Kentucky:
hemp and tobacco. Randolph was one of
several
counties settled mostly by
Southerners to the north and south of the
Missouri River. Given their culture and
traditions, this
area became known as Little Dixie,
and Randolph County was at its heart.
