The Golden Nugget
The Official Journal of The Historic Cabarrus Association
A subscription to The Golden Nugget is included with a paid membership to the Historic Cabarrus Association. Our journal features a diverse selection of original articles focused on Cabarrus County families, local history, historic preservation, research methodologies, resources, and updates from our partner organizations.
In response to growing demand, we launched The Golden Nugget as a digital publication in the spring of 2020. To subscribe, please consider joining us as a member of the Historic Cabarrus Association.
Back issues of the journal are available for $5.00 each, plus shipping and handling. While some early print editions are sold out, digital options for past issues remain accessible.
