1949 Map of Hicks Crossroads

About this map

The Catawba River serves as the primary boundary between Mecklenburg and Lincoln Counties on this mid-century survey, before the landscape was altered by massive hydroelectric impoundments. This era shows the river in its natural course, dotted with features like Graham Island, Cowans Ford Island, and the Sifford Island complex. The economy and geography of the region are defined by historic crossing points, including Cowans Ford and Allison Ferry, which connected the rural communities on either side of the water.
