About this map

The Yadkin River defines the landscape of this 1951 survey, winding through the borderlands of Davidson, Davie, and Rowan counties. The settlement of Yadkin College sits in the northeast, while the rural communities of Churchland and Tyro anchor the southern and eastern portions of the map. Significant for family history, the area is dotted with local landmarks like Yadkin Star Ch Cem, Grubb Cem, and Sandy Creek Cem, reflecting a long-established agricultural society. Along the river's serpentine course, Horseshoe Neck and Boones Cave stand out as notable geographic features. The interior is crisscrossed by numerous small waterways, including Dutchmans Creek, Farabee Creek, and Frost Creek, which served as the lifeblood for local homesteads. Educational and religious centers like Union Chapel Sch and Crossroads Ch further illustrate the mid-century social fabric of these North Carolina townships.
