Jonesville is Yadkin County's oldest town. According to An Illustrated History of Yadkin County 1950-1980, by William E. Rutledge Jr. it was first known as Martinsborough and incorporated in 1811. The name was changed to Jonesville in honor of Hardy Jones (1747-1819), who fought in the American Revolution and lived in the town. A marker to him is on the lawn of Jonesville United Methodist Church.
