The Roanoke-Chowan News-Herald is a newspaper that serves the rural North Carolina communities of Bertie, Hertford, Northampton and Gates counties, including the towns of Ahoskie, Murfreesboro and Windsor.[2]

The paper gets its name from the location of its primary region of distribution between the Roanoke River and Chowan River in Northeastern North Carolina, a location that includes Bertie, Hertford, and Northampton counties.

The inclusion of Gates County is the result of a merger with the Gates County Index.

One interesting feature of the newspaper is they have been known to cite Wikipedia as a source.[3]
