New Towns Uploaded to NC Postcards

During the month of March, we uploaded a couple of new towns to NC Postcards.  The card above shows a busy street corner in Enka.  Be sure to check them out!

  • Enka, Buncombe County
  • Polkville, Cleveland County
  • The card below is a real photo view of the Tapoco power dam in Graham County.  The card bears the title “Tapoca,” and I almost mis-identified it as a new town.  The NC Gazetteer notes that the town of Tapoco’s name is derived from the Tallahassee Power Company, and it was established in ca. 1930.
