Excerpt from Raleigh, N. C. Directory: 1915 1916 Population United States census, 1910 Population, 1915. Population in a radius of 100 miles of Raleigh. Raleigh, the capital of North Carolina, founded in 1792, was named for Sir Walter Raleigh, the famous knight and courier who, during the reign of Queen Elizabeth, sent the first expedition into what is now the territory of the United States, this having made the first settlement on Roanoke Island, near the coast, eastward from Raleigh. The land on which Raleigh now stands was purchased by a commission, named by the legislature, from Joel Lane, and the streets were set apart and also five public squares, the commission having given names to all these. The State Capital stands in Union Square; the Governor's Mansion in Burke Square; the State School for the White Blind in Caswell Square and the other two squares, Nash and Moore, are used as parks. The streets are at right angles and these and the squares are the property of the State and not of the city. The four principal streets, ninety-nine feet Wide, are named after former capitals New Bern, Halifax, Fayetteville and Hillsboro, and point in the direction of those places; the other streets being sixty-six feet wide. The State also owns the granite quarry from which the stone used in constructing the present capitol was taken, this building having been completed in 1840. Raleigh is unique in that the site purchased by the State for the capital and its streets and parks within its boundary, are State and not city property. It is unique in another respect; it is the only city which, during the war between the States, was formerly surrendered to the Federal authorities. This surrender having been made by commissioners who met Gen. Sherman, commander of the United States forces, in April 1865, a few miles south of the city.
