Incorporated in 1831, Brandon was named for Gov. Gerard C. Brandon. The town was laid out around a public square, known to early settlers as the "famous campground," and the town plat was surveyed by Thomas S. Shaw. A Confederate monument, erected in 1907, stands at the center of the original town square.
