Goldsboro, Wayne County is located in the heart of eastern North Carolina and is the halfway point between the state capital and the coast. Its history dates back to the American Revolutionary War, and there are two important factors that explain why Goldsboro has become a favorite destination for tourists and residents alike.

The Wilmington and Weldon Railroad (originally Wilmington & Raleigh Railroad) was completed in 1839, which brought significant changes to transportation in Wayne County. Two other major railway lines were completed, with Goldsborough Junction (as the name was then) serving as a train junction, connected by large railway lines to the east - west - north - south. This was an important cargo and passenger link between Raleigh, New Bern, Fayetteville and Tarboro. Hotels, houses and businesses were moved from other parts of the state and even to the city of Raleigh and other cities in the area, making it a popular destination for tourists and residents alike.

During the Civil War, Goldsborough played a significant role in the deployment of Confederate troops and the transportation of supplies to them. The 135th US Colored Troop was organized in Goldboro and marched into the Confederate capital, Washington, D.C., on July 4, 1861. The force was about 1,000, about 200 of whom had proven roots in NC and Wayne County.

The historical preservation of this Civil War story has been forgotten, but after checking my fondness for records and visiting graves throughout the Southeast, enough historical documents have emerged to show that the descendants of the troops who were organized and educated in Goldsboro live and are aware of them. I'm not sure what to do. # I have tracked down and brought together some of these descendants to acknowledge their family's role in the Civil War.

The Union Army believed that if the bridge could be destroyed, as it was, it would harm the Confederate armies in the Carolinas. Sherman knew that control of the city and the important Wilmington-Weldon Railroad would be important, and he broke his army into right and left wings to take Goldsboro and Smithfield. Foster managed to destroy the tracks and supply chain temporarily, but his men were again attacked by Confederate troops and survived with few casualties against the enemy. The victory was muted overall as the Confederates overcame the Union Army's assault on Virginia. At the same time, the union was in a fight for control of the North Carolina-South Carolina communications line.

The main highway that ran through the city was the Wilmington-Weldon Railroad, an important link between North Carolina and South Carolina.

While the main route that takes you through Wayne County is paddling the Neuse River, you can also see MST Center Street, which connects Goldsboro with other parts of North Carolina and South Carolina, as well as the NC State University campus. A great trail designed by the NC Arts Council is part of the Great NC Trail System, of which Goldborough is proud to be a part.

The park is located just two miles from downtown Goldsboro and is used as a venue for private and public events. The park consists of an amphitheater, picnic areas, a picnic area, picnic tables and picnic chairs. The Seymour Johnson AFB also served as the venue for the annual Goldborough Festival, which takes place every two years in odd - numbered - years. While overnight rates tend to increase for larger events in the Goldsboro area, you can expect higher room rates in late winter and early spring, but lower room rates can also be found in late spring or early summer, when the area is particularly lively. Low room prices can also be found in late summer and late autumn or in the summer months when it is rather cool.

Goldsboro's location on the Atlantic coast is ideal for a hot and humid summer and cool winter, while Goldsboro has a humid subtropical climate. Due to its proximity to the surrounding major universities, it is an exciting workplace and offers many opportunities for professional growth.

Grady's has previously been featured on the NCBS Historic Barbecue Trail, which is made up of only 22 facilities across the state. Due to the limited number of accommodations and availability, the booking must be made in advance.

The Neuse River flows through the Raleigh-Durham area from Goldsboro to the Atlantic Ocean. The Wilmington and Weldon railroad lines use the bridge to cross the Neusing River to reach their terminus in Wilmington, and the nearest reservoir is just a few miles south of the town of GoldSboro on the other side of I-85.

The Battle of Goldsborough Bridge was fought in December 1862, when Union and Confederate troops fought a bloody battle at this important intersection, now known as the "Battle of Goldboro Bridge." Both sides fought for control of the Neuse and its tributaries, as well as a number of other important sites along the river.
