APPENDIX 3
Chains of Title
CHAIN OF TITLE FOR THE FIRST TWO COURTHOUSES
The first courthouse was located on land not surveyed for
a town lot , at the intersection of Union and Corbin Streets,
included in Book 2 , page 60 , from Samuel Huie to John Means,
et al , Commissioners of Public Buildings of Cabarrus County ,
February 4 , 1796 , being 26 acres for the town of Concord.
Sources agree that the second courthouse was located on
Lot No. 1 Northwest, and the existing chain of title proceeds
from the above deed as follows :
Book 2 , page 62, from the Commissioners to Samuel Huie,
April 18 , 1796.
Book 6 , page 174 , from Samuel Huie to John K. Carson and
Hugh Carson, May 4 , 1807 .
There is no further record of John K. Carson's interest .
Book 9 , page 25 , from Hugh Carson to Thomas Garretson,
an undivided half interest , March 1, 1816 .
Book 10, page 15, Thomas Garretson and James Perkins to
John Scott, an undivided half interest, July 17, 1817 .
Book 10 , page 7 , John Scott to William Means, an undivided
half interest, September 27 , 1821.
There is no further record of transfer .

CHAIN OF TITLE FOR THIRD COURTHOUSE
Passage of Lots No . 2 and No . 3 Northeast
from George Kluttz to Cabarrus County
Page 2
George Kluttz ' s will of 1840 , as recorded in the ·
Minute Docket of the Court of Pleas and Quarter Sessions ,
Volume 3 , pages 103 - 104, grants his property, identified as
Lots 1 and 2 Northeast , which was his dwelling house , to his
wife Rosannah for life or until remarriage , then to be sold
with the proceeds to his grandchildren. As there is no
record of Kluttz otherwise disposing of Lot 3 or owning
Lot 1 , this likely does refer to Lots 2 and 3 Northeast .
The property likely remained with Rosannah Kluttz
until about 1870 , when her will is recorded , and on May 30 ,
1876 , the lands of George Kluttz were divided between R . W.
Foard , Martha S . Scott, J. N. Brown , Mary R . Archibald ,
Emma Fetyer , and Chalmer , Catharine , Augusta and June (?)
White, in Book 27 , page 171 .
In the minutes of the County Commissioners for 1877
and 1878, payments are made to certain parties for the land
for the courthouse . On June 4 , 1877 , a note for $1 , 000 . 00
at 8% plus $81 . 50 in cash is paid to J. N. Brown (Book 1 ,
page 376) . On January 7 , 1878 , Brown was paid $300 . 00 on
his note , and $317 . 62 went to the heirs of Josephine White ,
deceased. (Book 1 , page 397) . A note for $4 ,000 . 00 at 8%
went to Martha L . Scott as her due . (Book 1 , Page 398) .
While other heirs are not paid , the minutes are poorly
kept in this period as regards recording of payments . What
evidence there is implies that the Courthouse was s i ted on
good faith , payment being made after the estate was settled .

Thre e Cabarrus County Courthouse s
No. One 1796 - 1826 No. Two
No. One 1796 - 1826
According to Mr. R. W. Allis on, "The Court House,
a more stat ely building, (than the goal), an d not
very elegant at that, was placed in the center of the
public square, in the crossing of Union and Cor b an
Streets, was 30 x 30 feet, 15 feet hi gh, a frame bui ld­ing,
on pillars 3 feet high, a hip roof covered with
shingles, small windows , two on each side, and t wo
back of the judge's bench, one door on the northwest
side with a windo w on each side of the door, a high
platform for Judge or Magistrate to hold court, a bar
in front with table for clerk and two seats on each
s ide of bar for jury. Very little s tanding room for
citizens or spectators, no place to heat in winter, hot
in summer, cold i n winter."
Artist's Conception of First Courthouse
No. Two 1826 - 1875
The fi rst court house was used until a · new one
was built on the northw est corner of Union and Cor­ban
Streets in 1826. The building was of brick, much
larger and more comfortable, with court room, jury
room and a room for the sheriff on the second floor.
On the first floor were four rooms (offices), one each
1826 - 1875 No. Three 1875 - 197?
for the Clerk of the County, Clerk of the Superior
Court, County Register of Deeds and Grand Jury.
Quoting Mr. Alli son: "The court room was very much
cramped and not comfortable or convenient for a
large crowd. This building was b egu n anp fini shed
in 1826 and the firs~ court was held in May, 1826.
John Phifer was one of the building committee ap­pointed
by the County Court. J acob Stirewalt of
t his county and Samuel Lemly of Salisbury were the
contractors ; these gentlemen stood at the head of
their profession as builders. This building was en­larged
and improved in the year 1872 and was de­stroyed
by fire in F ebruary, 1875. It was insured for
$3 000.00. The County Commi ssioners b ought a lot
a~d had the present courthouse built, b eg in ning con­struction
in 1875."
Artist's Conception of Second Courthou se
The First County Court of Pleas and Qu arter Ses­sions
was held at the home of Robert Russell, on the
Salisbury Road, on the third Monday , (21st) of Jan­uary,
1793, in the seventeenth year of our Independ­ence.
The court elected the first sheriff of our then
infant county, Archibald Houston, Jr . , and, on the
following day, J anuary 22nd , elected J ohn Sim ianer,
clerk for the county of Cabarrus.

Dear V~s. Beaver:
Since wri~ing to you yesterday I have had opportunity to see a
photo of the Cabarrus courthouse, which gives me a stronger feeling
for preserving it. It is a dignified and stately example of an
architectural type which is now becoming increasingly rare . Some
day in the not too distant future buildings of this sort, with the
~~pressive tower of your courthouse, are going to be much more highly
regarded than now • . A community lucky enough to have such a landmark
will then prize it and preserve it. ..
Not too long ago the fine old New England churches, which are now so
highly regarded, were maligned as bad architecture and many were
• torn down . In our time there has been a similar derogation of every­thing
Victorian and hundreds, perhaps thousands, of buildings on the
order of your courthouse have been demolished as bad buildings and
bad architecture. Fortunately now a new appreciation is developing
for this period of our architectural history and many examples are
being rescued.
For example the Gov ernor's Mansion here in Raleigh used to be referred
to as a ''monstrosity . 11 Now all that has changed and the mansion is \.
., being carefully preserved as a gracious architectural specimen and
residence for our governors . In Monroe the courthouse, built in the
1880's, is no longer adequate and there was for some time talk of
tearing it down in order to build a larger and more convenient building
on the site. There was much opposition to this thought and we understand
plans have been developed for building the courthouse elsewhere and
preserving the old building as a historic landmark.
I·
,t
If you can marshal the support for preserving your stately old courthouse,
it is my conviction that future generations will be grateful. If the
building is demolished, Concord and Oabarrus will be losing perhaps its
most important architectural example from the Victorian period.
With cordial good wishes--
,.

of County Commissioners, was au- •
thori1.ed ''to invite some architect!

Work had been started on the
courthous e, meanwhile, aQd on
August 21, 1875, it was ordered by
t h e board "that II. C. McAllister,

The board directed t hat lhe in s ur

~i derauly c hanged in appearance

Cour white columns was widened
and the columns were taken dow1i.
An iron railing atop th e ' porch also
was r emoved and · a small addition
was erected to the rear or the
structure. At the same· li me the
county erected the present jail at
~he rear of the court house a nd sold
Ute former jail property on Churc h
street.
Architects have been. given pic·

Together , we have come a long way in preserving and restoring our 1876 Courthouse .
We have been through the valleys of doubt and despair an d through faith we have
worked slowly but surely toward the mountain top experience of completing th i s
venture of faith .
We have completed this stage of our preservation and restoration to the base of
the bell and clock tower and all we lack is ·to reach the top of the moun tain , so to
speak , and co mplete the tower and the clock faces .
Counting the bills we have now to pay , an d with the estimated cost of completion
we need $10,000 to get the job don e.
I am ma iling my check for $500 . to our treasurer , Howard Smith , P. O. Box 966 , to
help in this completion.
Won't you please join me and the other members of Hi storic Cabarrus and make
your contribution in whatever amount you can see your way to do right away?
You wi l l be glad you did!

HISTOR IC CABAR RUS ,
OLD COURT HOUSE BU I LDING
P. O. BOX 966
CONCORD , N. C. 28025
Progress Report on the Preservation and Restoration of the Old Court House.
Thank you fo~ your encourageme~ t , continued interest and f inanci al support. With­out
this support , it would not have been possible to come this far. We are presently
working out a long-term lease with the Board of County Commissioners .
The rear of the old Court House has been closed up f rom the aftermath of tearing
away the jail. A11 m·issing outside windows and doors have bee11 replaced so that the
building can be securely locked.
Historic Cabarrus has set up its headquarters office in the first room on the left
of front hall. Even in the midst of repairs, painting and cleaning , a small group
of faithful volunteers has kept the office open several hours f i ve days each week
to receive visitors and give information.
Four organizations in additio11 to His toric Cabarrus have expressed interest in
occupancy with the understanding that monthly expenses must be sha red. These are :
the Old Courthouse Theatre , the Junior Char-ity League , Memorial Museum , and the
Art Guild,
The plumbing downstairs is work~n g and halls and rest rooms have been painted.
Most of the vi nes ~tJhich were damaging the old hand-made bricks have been removed .
Thanks to Howard E1ectric Compa~y lights and receptacles are funct ioning agai n.
Thanks to Allen McDonald the century old clock is keeping perfect time and striking
on the hour and half ho ur. The attic and bell tower are clean and the beautiful
old bell gleams, t~anks to many hours of good work by volunteer boy scouts .
Our organization has no paid employees. All money spent ~s been for direct labor
and materia 1 s . Every effort is being made to get the most for do 11 ars spent. We
are trying to manage your money, as we use our own personal money, as economi cally
as possible .
Contributions and pl edges to Historic Cabarrus Inc . amount to $32,000 toward our
goal of $99 ,000. We have spent $10,000 for the work done so far. The remaining
$22,000 consists of $13,000 in good pledges not yet due and $9,000 cash ($7,000 in
savings and $2,000 in c~ecking account ) . We sti11 need $47 ,000 to meet our goal.
Before proceedjng w~th the rest of the repairs to the outs i de of the building, which
is mainly replac ing wood boxing and cornices and rebui1ding concealed guttering,
then pa i nting the entire bui1ding and tower , we feel we should get mor·e money or
pledges on ha0d. We do not intend to go into deficit financin g.
To those of you have contributed to date, any additional help you can give will be
welcomed .
To those who ha ~ e not yet joined =n this worthwhile and challeng i ng undertaking - do
give it your prompt ~tte0 tion and support. Every person who has an i nterest in the
past and future of Caba rrus County srould have a share in the preservation of this
historic bu il ding and parti cipate in ~ts use. If you have quest;ons or suggestions
we wou ld be pl eased to hear from you.

Mrs . W. Erwin Spainhour
87 Edgewood Avenue, N.E.
Concord, North Carolina 28025
Dear Mrs . Spainhour:
Enclosed you will find some material which I ran across in the
"Miscellaneous Records" of Wake County. Because it was located in
such an unlikely place, it is not at all surprising that David Brown
did not discover it during the course of his research . The material
I am referring to is a set of specifications drawn up by George S. H.
Appleget for th~ iron work on the jailhouse which was being built in
conjunction with the courthouse . David mentions the fact that the
county corrmissioners ordered the construction of both a jail and
courthouse following the fire of February, 1875. He also states that
this jail was replaced in 1913- 1915 when major additions were made to
the courthouse. These specifications apparently describe the county
jail begun in 1875 well to the rear of the courthouse. and across
Church Street--the one which appears on the Gray 1s Map of 1882.
I am able to add only a few additional details . While Appleget
did the iron work on the jail, the general contractor was John Wilkes
of Mecklenburg County. In 1879 it was necessary for Wilkes , trading
as the Mecklenburg Iron Works , to bring suit against Appleget in Wake
County for recovery of $83. 00 , which Appleget had failed to pay for
materials. The verdict was in Wilkes ' s favor, and Appleget was
ordered to pay. This was less than a year before his death .
I thought you and your group would be interested in knowing about
Appleget ' s involvement with the jail. You may want to add his specifi­cations
to the appendixes of David~s report.
With best wishes 1:or continuing success wi th the courthouse project,
I am
JCC/pc
