1971 Map of Thurmond

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

Thurmond and the rugged divide between Surry Co and Wilkes Co define this 1971 survey of the North Carolina foothills. The landscape is heavily marked by small rural congregations, including Roaring Gap Ch, Sandy Creek Ch, and Little Elkin Ch, reflecting the deep-seated community structures of the era. The terrain transitions from the heights of Wells Knob and White Rock down into a complex drainage system where Elkin Creek and Grassy Creek converge toward the larger town of Elkin in the southeast.
