2019 Map of Waxhaw

About this map

Waxhaw and Mineral Springs anchor this detailed study of Union County, capturing the transition from traditional rural hubs to contemporary residential developments. The landscape is defined by the headwaters and branches of the Twelvemile Creek system, including W Fork Twelvemile Cr and E Fork Twelvemile Cr, which wind through a topography marked by significant genealogical sites. Numerous community landmarks are documented, such as the Mineral Springs United Methodist Church Cem and Waxhaw Church Cem. The presence of the Aero Plantation Airport near Weddington and various family-named burial grounds like Walker Cem and McWhorter Cem reflects the overlapping layers of colonial-era heritage and modern aviation infrastructure in this Piedmont region of North Carolina.
