1966 Map of Roaring River

About this map

The Yadkin River and the Southern Railway corridor define the industrial and transit heart of this Wilkes County landscape in the mid-1960s. While North Wilkesboro anchors the western edge, the map reveals a dense network of rural communities such as Dellaplane, Call, and Mathis, each tied together by dozens of local landmarks. A notable concentration of spiritual and civic centers, including Orange Chapel and Fishing Creek Arbor Ch, speaks to the deeply established social fabric of the Piedmont foothills during this era.
