In 1819 the court house of Marlborough District was transferred from Carlisle, a village on the Pee Dee River, to this more central location. Bennettsville developed around the new court house in the heart of a rich farm land area. On March 6, 1865, it was occupied by the 17th Army Corps, U. S. A., commanded by Gen. W.T. Sherman.
