1956 Map of Wadesboro

About this map

Wadesboro serves as the central hub of this mid-1950s survey, showing a landscape defined by the intersection of major rail lines and industrial sites. The Seaboard Air Line and the Winston-Salem Southbound railroads converge near the heart of the community, supporting local industry at Wade Mills and connections to outlying areas like Gatewood Sta. The surrounding rural topography is deeply etched with a network of drainage branches, including Goulds Creek and Jones Creek, which separate dozens of family-named landmarks and rural congregations.
