It is often considered a suburb of nearby Danville, Virginia. Pelham is located along Pelham Loop Road near the eastern terminus of NC 700 at US 29 (future Interstate 785). It was named for Confederate Col. John Pelham, known as "the Gallant Pelham" for his extraordinary bravery, whose parents, Dr. Atkinson and Martha Mumford McGehee Pelham, resided in neighboring Person County before moving to Alabama. Nearby communities, independent cities, and municipalities include Danville, Eden, Ruffin, Yanceyville, Purley, and Casville. Pelham remains the home of the Loyal White Knights, one of the country's larger KKK groups.[1] References1. ^{{cite news|title=As hate crimes rise, some look to an impeached NC governor for lessons|first=Will|last=Doran|newspaper=News & Observer|date=November 24, 2018|url=https://www.newsobserver.com/article222136675.html}} External links
