Abstract |
The Carolina Trucking Development Company was based in Wilmington, N.C., in the early
part of the twentieth century. The Company appears to have been primarily devoted
to agricultural development and was involved with establishing farming communities
in several counties in North Carolina, some of which were populated by immigrant groups,
including German, Dutch, Italian, and Polish peoples. The images in the collection appear to have been taken by or at the request of the
Carolina Trucking Development Company, probably for use in promotional materials such
as brochures or pamphlets advertising farmland for sale. The images depict farmland,
houses, schools, individuals and groups, and farming activities in various agricultural
communities in Columbus, New Hanover, and Pender counties.
