Mr. Wren shared history with thel Board regarding the origin of the moving of the Nash-Edgecombe County linei in 1871 which changed the boundaries of electoral units to reduce African American representation, according to thel black legislators of1871. Inl February 1871 thel NC Senate passed al bill moving thel Nash-Edgecombe boundary several miles east to the Wilmington and' Weldon railroad track. This divided Edgecombe County towns of Whitakers, Battleboro, Rocky Mount and Sharpsburg into two counties, and transferred voters from majority black Edgecombe County, which had elected African Americans to office, into majority white Nash County, which had never elected African Americans. He stated that this move took away half of Edgecombe County's tax revenue from the railroad and placed Rocky Mount Mills, Edgecombe's major industry and top tax payer, in Nash County. Both the railroad and the mill werei important to market Edgecombe's cotton, still picked by blackl hands who now elected black and white Republicans into officei in Edgecombe. About 11,520 acres of land was taken from Edgecombe and given tol Nash County for a token sum of $800. The Edgecombe County Board ofCommissioners at that time resolved that "therei is as scheme ai foot in the legislature to change the county linel between Edgecombe and Nash, the passage of suchl bill...would be very unjust on a large portion of the people of this county" and ordered "our Senator and Representatives..to use: all influence against the passage ofsuch bill..." Even] leading elite white Democrats of] Edgecombe such as Judge George Howard opposed this move, according to the' Tarboro Southerner, which called it "as selfish move of which the entire people of] Edgecombe condemn with scarcely a dissenting vote." Over 5001 Edgecombe Citizens signed aj petition of protest to thel NCI House of Representatives, which stated, "never in the history of legislation was an act attempted tol be done which will do so muchi injustice to a people as that proposed in the bill under consideration if consummated.
