Tryon formed in 1769, from Mecklenburg County, North Carolina in its initial scope had boundaries almost undefinable. See, "The History of Old Tryon and Rutherford Counties," 1730-1936, by Clarance W. Griffin. The first Tryon Sheriff reported 1226 taxables in 1769. Erent Holcomb in his, "Deed Abstracts of Tryon, Lincoln and Rutherford Counties, North Carolina 1769-1786," shows that at the time of its formation, Tryon County, North Carolina included all of the South Carolina Counties of York, Chester, Union, Cherokee, Spartanburg, Greenville, Laurens and Newberry; and also included all or parts of the North Carolina Counties of Lincoln, Gaston, Cleveland, Rutherford, Henderson, Polk, Burke and McDowell http://harrisonheritage.com/anhamptn.htm
