While it is debated as to whether President Andrew Jackson was born in North Carolina or South Carolina, it is certain that he was born in the Waxhaw region which encompasses both states.

At the Museum of the Waxhaws in Waxhaw, N.C. just south of Charlotte, visitors can learn about the history of the Waxhaws region, the Waxhaw Indians and Andrew Jackson's connection to the region.
