2002 Map of Richfield
USGS Topo · Published 2003About this map
Pfeiffer College serves as a focal point for the Misenheimer area, situated along the rail line that connects this academic hub to the nearby town of Richfield. The landscape is defined by the headwaters of Buffalo Creek, Long Creek, and Big Bear Creek, which drain the rolling terrain of western Stanly County. Small rural communities like Millingport, Mattons Grove, and Finger reveal a settlement pattern deeply rooted in agriculture and local industry, with numerous country churches such as St Stephens Ch and New Bethel Ch serving as historic landmarks for genealogists. The presence of the Bear Creek Airport and the rail-oriented layout of Misenheimer Springs Station reflect a transition between traditional Piedmont farming and the infrastructure of modern transportation and education that shaped the region during the late 20th century.
