Welcome to the Madison County, NCGenWeb site! Madison County was formed in 1851 from Buncombe and Yancey Counties and was named in honor of James Madison, 4th president of the US. It is bordered by Buncombe, Haywood, and Yancey counties in NC and by Greene, Washington, and Unicoi counties in TN. The county seat (which was originally called Lapland) is Marshall, which was named for U.S. Chief Justice John Marshall. Other towns in Madison County include Mars Hill (home of Mars Hill College) and Hot Springs. The courthouse is at 2 North Main Street in Marshall.

This site operates on your submissions! If you have submissions, questions, or comments, please contact the county coordinator Elle Collard.
