About this map

The southern slopes of Sauratown Mtn descend into a network of creek valleys and small rural communities in the mid-1960s. The town of King serves as a primary hub for this portion of the Piedmont, where the Southern railway line runs parallel to White Road. To the north, the landscape is defined by the headwaters of the Little Yadkin River and the East Prong, with ridges dotted by numerous country churches such as Taylor Chapel and Mount Olive Ch. Regional transportation is well-established, including the King Airport and a drive-in theater, reflecting the area's mid-century development. The survey also captures the boundary between Stokes Co and Forsyth Co, showing the agrarian transition into Bethania and Old Richmond as the terrain levels out toward the south.
