1966 Map of East Bend
USGS Topo · Published 1967About this map
The community of East Bend serves as a primary hub in this mid-1960s survey of Yadkin County, where a dense network of country churches and schools defines the social geography. Small settlements like Smithtown, Richmond Hill, and Baltimore are connected by local routes such as Richmond Hill Road and Baltimore Road, illustrating a rural landscape built around crossroads and faith centers. The terrain is deeply carved by watercourses, including the winding Forbush Creek and its tributary Little Forbush Creek, alongside Deep Creek and Fall Creek. Genealogists will find significant value in the detailed placement of religious landmarks such as the Hall Creek Tabernacle, Patterson Grove Ch, and Mt Carmel Ch, as well as the Fall Creek Sch. The presence of several cemeteries and the Old U.S. 421 corridor reflects the era's transition between traditional local life and increasing regional connectivity.
