My favorite aunt and uncle lived in Madison. One of their best friends coached football in Madison, may have coached Madison in your day rambbq, his name just came I believe it was Kure or Cure. I remember he was quite a coach.

I believe you are talking about Raymond Cure...coached at either Madison or Mayodan and later at Madison-Mayodan when they consolidated in early 60's.....he had retired before my playing days (RSH grad of 1968)...................
Columbus, NC is in Polk County, not Columbus County; Stanley is in Gaston County not Stanly County, NC; Beaufort, NC is in Carterett County, not Beaufort County.
Lincolnton, Thomasville, Reidsville and Clinton all have towns with the same name in neighboring Georgia.
Here is one for Wizard of the East: the combined populations of Mecklenburg and Gaston County is one million, two hundred and ninetty seven thousand, one hundred and eighty two, and the land area of both counties combined (910) square miles is less than Sampson County alone with 962 square miles.

I've been to Lincolnton.....nice town....and that's as close as I would wish to be to Charlotte or even Gastonia....................
The middle school (which used to be the high school) stadium is named after him. *** sorry, guess if read the whole obituary it stated that....
thanks for the obit info on Coach Cure....must have been a remarkable man....always heard he was................
The Lincolnton Red Devils in Georgia! Perennial 1a powerhouse. I’ve seen them play several times. We leased 180 acres for hunting in Lincolnton, Ga. for 10 years. Best Turkey population in Georgia!
Ah yes, Thomasville Georgia. Same mascot and colors too except they have red and gold. They also have a good football tradition from what I know. Believe both of our schools were running for state titles at the same time and would pull for each other. Bulldogs gotta stick together.
Thomasville, Georgia was home to the Thomasville Tigers , an affiliate of the Detroit Tigers, of the now defunked Georgia-Florida League in the mid sixties, before that being a farm team of the Brooklyn slash Los Angeles Dodgers.
Good luck to the Reidsville Rams.

Sampson County is the largest county a big rural county that grows a lot of crops in huge fields and raises a lot of hogs and turkeys. It 75 miles across points from northwest to southeast. The population is on 63,636. The roads are good though being only an hour from Raleigh, 1 1/4 hr to Wilmington and 30 min to either Fayetteville or Goldsboro. We can get out of the country fast down here!
