One of the homes is the Josiah Bell House, home to Josiah Fisher Bell, a confederate spy in a town where 40% of the population sympathized with the Union.[1] The other historic buildings include:[2]

  • Leffers Cottage, c1778, former home of Samuel Leffers
  • Carteret County Courthouse, c1796, the oldest wood-framed courthouse in North Carolina
  • John C. Manson House, c1825
  • The Old Jail, c1829, which remained in use until 1954
  • The Apothecary Shop and Doctor's Office, c1859

The Beaufort Historical Association, which operates the two-acre site, also operates the nearby Old Burying Ground, home to some former residents of historic Beaufort.[3] The cemetery was also among the few consecrated by Union and Confederate clergy.
