William H. Bacon, who grew up in Jackson County, was one of the first permanent families to settle in Forsyth County in 1829-1830. Present day Forsyth County families who are related to William H. Bacon include:
Bennetts, Bensons, Castleberrys, Landers, Langs, Otwells, Stones, Riders, Rogers.
Our ancestor, William H. Bacon, was instrumental in starting a Forsyth County school system, and he donated land in the southern part of the county for the Bacon School, which operated until about 1935. We all should be proud to be descendents of this great man.
