1968 Map of Traphill

USGS Topo · Published 1987

About this map

The Roaring River curves through the heart of Wilkes County, shaping the rural landscape of North Carolina during the late 1960s. This survey captures a community deeply rooted in its local institutions, evidenced by the high density of country churches and schools that served the surrounding hollows. From Traphill and Dockery in the north to the settlement of Hays in the south, the map reveals a pattern of development closely tied to the ridgelines and watercourses. Educational life is anchored by the North High Sch, while spiritual and social hubs like Roaring River Ch, New Covenant Ch, and Maple Grove Ch are scattered throughout the hills. The terrain is defined by prominent landmarks such as Pole Bridge Gap and Carters Mountain, with numerous branches and prongs including Little Bugaboo Creek feeding the larger river system, providing a detailed look at the region's historical geography.
