Abstract:

North Wilkesboro, a thriving little city of northwestern North Carolina, had its beginning because of the wording of a railroad contract between the Richmond and Danville Railway Company and the Wilkes County board of commissioners. Now the little town is celebrating its 50th anniversary with a big celebration.
