  1. Development of counties in the North Carolina Piedmont,1734-2004

  2. *North Carolina's early county boundaries were created from the east, where administrative power was located in the early years of the colony. Boundaries on the western or northwestern sides of the early Piedmont counties were generally not defined at the time the county was created. On these maps, you will see a line of the type "indefinite limit" in such instances. "Indefinite limit" lines should not be interpreted to be actual boundaries in any sense. Instead, such lines have been used in these maps to connect the adjacent sides of the county at the limits of their officially defined extent--but the actual county territory generally extended considerably farther out than this.
