A Little History about our town...

John Lawson, a well known explorer and surveyor, laid out the original town in 1706. The town's 12 settlers allocated a place for a church, courthouse, and a marketplace. St. Thomas Church was erected in 1734. It is still in use today and is the location for many weddings. The Palmer-Marsh House is one of the oldest existing houses in the state, being constructed in 1744. The Bonner House overlooking the waters of Bath Creek joining the Pamlico River was built in 1830. The Van Der Veer House was constructed in 1790. This home is now the site of a museum exploring the life of Edward Teach, better known as Blackbeard the Pirate. He made Bath his home for a short while before returning to the sea.
