1969 Map of Kannapolis

About this map

Kannapolis serves as the primary urban center on this terrain, where the sprawling textile-era grid of the town meet the rural landscape of the Cabarrus Co and Mecklenburg Co border. The map documents a countryside defined by small rural hubs and historical religious landmarks, including Bethpage Ch, Poplar Tent Ch, and Shiloh Ch. These spiritual and social centers are connected by a network of winding roads that follow the drainage patterns of Coddle Creek and the Rocky River.
