About this map

Lake Hickory and the Catawba River define the central geography of this region along the boundary of Alexander and Catawba counties. The landscape transitions from the elevations of Barrett Mtn and Buck Hill in the northwest down to the water-oriented communities like Taylorsville Beach. This modern topographic perspective reveals a well-developed network of rural and suburban residential corridors, including numerous family-named roads such as Earl Icenhour Ln and Hines Farm Rd, which point to the area's agricultural lineage and land divisions.

Local landmarks such as the Alexander County Airport and the historic Saint Lukes Cem provide specific points of interest for genealogists and local historians. The map documents the northern fringes of Hickory and Conover, showing how these urban centers interact with the river system. Notable water features like the Lower Little River, Elk Shoal Cr, and Reitzel Cove illustrate the complex drainage patterns that have influenced settlement at Millersville and Oxford Park.
