Dunn: Harnett County and General Lee
Dunn is a small city in Harnett County along Interstate 95. The town was incorporated in 1887 and named for Bennett R. Dunn, a railroad engineer. General William Carey Lee, one of the pioneers of American airborne infantry doctrine during World War II, was born in Dunn in 1895 and is buried there. The General William C. Lee Airborne Museum, in his childhood home, preserves artifacts from his career and from the history of U.S. airborne forces.
Dunn's population of about 9,700 has remained relatively stable for decades. The town's economy historically rested on tobacco and small manufacturing. Averasboro Battlefield, the site of a March 1865 Civil War battle, lies just outside the city and includes a state historic site and museum. The Battle of Averasboro, though smaller than many Civil War engagements, delayed William T. Sherman's advance toward Goldsboro.
Campbell University's main campus in Buies Creek, about 15 miles west of Dunn, contributes to the local economic and cultural mix, as does Harnett Regional Medical Center. Interstate 95 runs along the eastern edge of Dunn, and the town serves as a regular stop for travelers between the Northeast and Florida.
