A story circulates about the origin of Concord in which two towns were vying to be made the county seat of the newly-created Cabarrus County. The powers that were decided to build a new town between those other two and make this new town the county seat, in order to bring Concord to the dispute. Thus, the town of Concord was founded. This story is also used as an explanation for why the name of the North Carolina town is pronounced like the word, rather than like Concord, New Hampshire ("conquered").
