In northern Wayne County, near the town of Fremont (then called Nahunta), Charles Brantley Aycock was born on November 1, 1859. From 1901 to 1905 he earned a reputation as North Carolina’s “Education Governor” because of his many contributions to the state’s public school system.

"Found off the beaten path, two miles south of Fremont, this historic site features a mid-nineteenth-century farmstead, including a house, kitchen, and outbuildings. The house is furnished with pieces from the period."
