2019 Map of Gastonia South

About this map

Gastonia and South Gastonia serve as the northern anchors of this 2019 survey, which documents the residential and industrial corridors extending south toward the North Carolina South Carolina border. The landscape is defined by the headwaters and tributaries of Crowders Creek, including S Fork Crowders Cr and Beaverdam Cr, which drain the undulating terrain near Jackson Knob. Genealogists will find a wealth of local landmarks, from established burial grounds like Olney Church Cem and Firestone Cem to smaller rural sites like Mount Pleasant Church Cem. The map captures a mix of longstanding communities such as Crowders, Boogertown, and Bowling Green, alongside the aviation facilities of the Gastonia Municipal Airport. In the southern portion of the sheet, the town of Clover appears just across the state line, illustrating the cross-border connectivity of this Piedmont region.
