Hillsborough was surveyed and mapped by William Churton (a surveyor for Earl Granville) in 1754, and was originally named Corbin Town (for Francis Corbin, a member of the governor’s council and one of Granville’s land agents) soon thereafter in 1754, and again renamed Childsburgh (in honor of Thomas Child, the attorney general for North Carolina from 1751-1760 and another one of Granville’s land agents) in 1759. It wasn’t until 1766 that it was named Hillsborough, after the Earl of Hillsborough, the British secretary of state for the colonies and a relative of royal Governor Tryon’s.
It was an earlier Piedmont colonial town where court was held, and was the scene of some pre-Revolutionary War tensions (such as during the Regulator uprising). The town was used as a base by (British General) Cornwallis in February of 1781 during the American Revolution. -- Source: Wikipedia.com
