'''Thomasville''' is a city in [[Davidson County, North Carolina]], United States. The population was 27,183 at the 2020 census.<ref name="Census 2010">{{cite web| url=http://factfinder.census.gov/bkmk/table/1.0/en/DEC/10_SF1/G001/1600000US3767420| title=Geographic Identifiers: 2010 Demographic Profile Data (G001): Thomasville city, North Carolina| publisher=U.S. Census Bureau, American Factfinder| access-date=November 25, 2015| archive-url=https://archive.today/20200213084949/http://factfinder.census.gov/bkmk/table/1.0/en/DEC/10_SF1/G001/1600000US3767420| archive-date=February 13, 2020| url-status=dead}}</ref> The city was once notable for its furniture industry, as were its neighbors [[High Point, North Carolina|High Point]] and [[Lexington, North Carolina|Lexington]]. This [[Piedmont Triad]] community was established in 1852 and hosts the state's oldest festival, "Everybody's Day".

==History==
John Warwick Thomas was born June 27, 1800, and by age 22 owned {{convert|384|acre}} in the Cedar Lodge area after marrying Mary Lambeth, daughter of Moses Lambeth. By age 30 he was a state representative. In 1848 he became a state senator. He pushed to get a railroad built through Davidson County and even invested money. Knowing the railroad was coming, Thomas built the community's first store in 1852 at present-day West Main and Salem streets, and the community was named "Thomasville" for its founder. In 1855 the [[North Carolina Railroad]] was built through Davidson County, reaching Thomasville November 9. On January 8, 1857, Thomasville was [[Municipal corporation|incorporated]] and occupied one square mile, with the railroad dividing the town into north and south sections.

In 1860 Thomasville had 308 people. After the [[American Civil War|Civil War]] the town had only 217 residents, but by 1880 the population was 450, reaching 751 by 1890.

Long Bill Whiteheart may have been the first to make furniture; he made split-bottom chairs at home. D.S. Westmoreland also made chairs at home starting in 1866, and his factory on what became Randolph Street went up in 1879 but burned in 1897 and was not rebuilt. The oldest plant still standing as of 1990 was that of Standard Chair, built in 1898. Other furniture companies were Lambeth Furniture, Thompson Chair, and Queen Chair Company.

Cramer Furniture was said{{By whom|date=August 2018}} to be the South's second largest furniture company in 1901. Thomasville Chair, started in 1904, soon became the town's leading furniture manufacturer. By 1916, 2,000 chairs a day were being made citywide.

By 1909 Jewel Cotton Mills and Amazon Cotton Mills gave Thomasville another industry, [[textile]]s. Sellers Hosiery Mills of [[Burlington, North Carolina|Burlington]] opened in 1913, and Thomasville Hosiery in 1916.<ref>Bob Burchette, "Thomasville: Ready for Fresh Start," ''[[Greensboro News & Record]]'', September 23, 1990, Centennial section p. 82.</ref>

==Big Chair==
[[File:The Big Chair 2016 (cropped).jpg|thumb|[[The Big Chair]]]]
{{Main|The Big Chair}}

Thomasville is commonly referred to as the "Chair Town" or "Chair City", in reference to a {{convert|30|ft|adj=on}} landmark replica of a [[Duncan Phyfe]] armchair that rests in the middle of the city. The original "Big Chair" was constructed in 1922 by the now-defunct [[Thomasville Furniture Industries]] (formerly the Thomasville Chair Company) out of lumber and Swiss steer hide to reflect the city's prominent furniture industry. However, this chair was scrapped in 1936 after 15 years of exposure to the weather. In 1951, a larger concrete version of the chair was erected with the collaboration of local businesses and civic organizations and still remains today. The Big Chair gained national attention in 1960 when then presidential candidate [[Lyndon B. Johnson]] greeted supporters on the monument during a campaign whistle stop.<ref name="tourism-chair">[http://www.thomasvilletourism.com/Historic%20Sites/BigChair.html "The Big Chair"]</ref> Although larger ones have been built, many Thomasville residents still boast that the Big Chair between the two Main Streets is the "World's Largest Chair".
