1974 Map of Grays Chapel

About this map

Southern railroad tracks carve a north-south path through this part of Randolph County, linking small rural communities like Lineberry and Grays Chapel. The landscape is defined by the winding course of Sandy Creek and its tributaries, which eventually give way to the Deep River corridor at the southern edge. Here, the riverside settlements of Franklinville and Cedar Falls represent centers of local activity, situated near the banks of the river that historically powered the region's early development.
