1971 Map of Unity

About this map

The North Carolina South Carolina state line bisects this landscape, dividing the communities of Union County and Lancaster County during the early 1970s. The terrain is defined by a dense network of small waterways, such as Cane Creek and Waxhaw Creek, which dictate the placement of small rural settlements and crossroads. Community life centers on numerous country houses of worship, including Unity Ch, Pleasant Plains Ch, and Bethlehem Ch, which serve as primary anchors for local genealogists and historians.
