About this map

The First Broad River carves through this Cleveland County landscape, anchoring the textile-era town of Lawndale and the village of Double Shoals. In this rural corridor, the topography is defined by the winding paths of Knob Cr and Crooked Run Cr, which feed the river valley. The map reveals a dense network of local family history, evidenced by several scattered burial sites including Warlick Cem, Eaker Cem, and Mooney Cem.

Settlement patterns follow the high ground between creek branches, with Belwood and Rockdale positioned near the northern boundary and Fallston to the east. The land is crisscrossed by namesake roads such as Carpenters Grove Church Rd and Saint Peters Church Rd, tracing the routes between small communities. Hydrological features like Ross Pond and Magness Cr illustrate the drainage system that supported the agricultural and milling development of the Piedmont region.
