Bladen County was formed in 1734 as Bladen Precinct, part of Bath County. With the abolition of Bath County in 1739, all of its precincts became individual counties. The county was named for Martin Bladen, a member of the Board of Trade. The county seat is Elizabethtown, which is also the largest city. Bladen County is considered the “mother county” of North Carolina because 55 of the 100 counties in North Carolina were once part of Bladen County.
