- Abstract
- The Town of Red Cross - Past and Present: Red Cross was founded in the late 1700s and for nearly two hundred years life changed very little. Originally called “Red Crossing,” the Town owes its name to the rich red dirt of the Piedmont and the crossroads of what would eventually become N.C. 24/27 and N.C. 205. N.C. 24/27 remained unpaved until 1925, and N.C. 205 was not paved until 1941. Rolling farmland dotted by farmhouses dominated the landscape. A few small-scale farming-related businesses and industries served the area, and by the early 1900s, several small stores operated at the crossroads. Life and land use remained fairly constant until the latter part of the Twentieth Century.
