Conover, North Carolina is in Catawba County. Conover was founded in 1871, when Francis Smyre purchased a portion of land from J.P. Spencer and built a home for himself and his new bride. The point he chose for his home was a junction point from which the Southern Railway ran a branch line to Newton, three miles to the south, which served as a turntable for trains going either north or south. The town was incorporated in 1877.
