Pikeville Has Existed for More Than 200 Years
Pikeville has existed as a principal stagecoach stop since it was settled in the 1700’s by the Pike family.
The King of England gave Samuel and Anne Pike a grant of between 2,500 and 3,000 acres in 1703 which contained what is now Pikeville. In 1785 the land was transferred to Nathan Pike who operated a large tavern, a rambling structure built in the English style. . .
