1993 Map of Rutherfordton North

About this map

Union Mills and Gilkey anchor this rural landscape in the 1990s, where the Second Broad River meanders through a terrain defined by small farming communities and numerous country churches. The map documents the southern expansion of development near Rutherfordton and Ruth, featuring the Rutherford County Airport and the Seaboard System railroad tracks that run north-south through the valley. This 1993 revision, based on earlier surveys, provides a detailed look at local genealogy landmarks such as The Bible Tabernacle, Brittain Ch, and the Ruth Sch. The network of secondary roads, including Nannytown Road and Whiteside Road, connects long-established settlements like Logan and Westminster, reflecting the persistent rural character of this portion of Rutherford County before further modern suburbanization.
