Aulander

… town in NW Bertie County. In existence before the Civil War as Harmon's Crossroads. Inc. as Aulander in 1885. Alt. 73. The intended name was Orlando, but a phonetic spelling was used to distinguish it from Orlando, Fla. Another story is that a local sawmill operator, Andrew J. Dunning, had the town named for himself, i.e. "Ole Ander."
