Inhaltsangabe

Excerpt from Joint Legislative Commission on Municipal Incorporations<br/><br/>When the early American colonial settlers crossed the Catawba River into present day Lincoln County, they had to contest with the Catawba Indians along with the rigors of agrarian colonial life for their survival. The fertile lowlands along the western bank of the Catawba River provided the opportunity for the development of a prosperous farming community. These early settlers were hard working, industrious, God-fearing people. Many of their descendants still populate the eastern section of modern-day Lincoln County. The community suffered a painful blow when in 1862 a group of 86 men and boys left the area to fight in the Civil War with the Beatties Ford Ri?e Company. In the battle of Seven Pines, just south of Richmond, 83 members of the company were either killed or seriously injured. The community experienced another emotional disruption when the Duke Power Company ?ooded a large portion of their land in the early 19605 to form what is today Lake Norman, the largest lake in North Carolina.
