Halifax County was formed in 1758, from Edgecombe County. Despite the age, the older records were not preserved. Halifax will be reduced in size when Martin County was formed in 1774 (parts of Halifax and Tyrrell).
Miscellaneous land records are a Òcatch allÓ of land disputes, agreements, surveys, etc. This collection is actually placed in alphabetical order and not date order. This county has only one box (where most counties have two).
