ORIGIN AND LOCATION


The town of Roxboro was formed in 1793 as the County Seat of Person County. It derived its name from a city in Scotland (spelled Rox- burgh). It is the only incorporated community in Person County which lies in the North Piedmont section of North Carolina, bordering Virginia on the North; Granville County on the East; Durham and Orange Coun- ties on the South and Caswell County on the West. Situated on Highway 501 thirty miles North of Durham, N. C. Roxboro is located in the midst of beautiful rolling hills, enjoying an elevation of 715 feet; a healthy cli- mate with a mean temperature of 58.7 degrees, and an average annual rainfall of 46 inches.


POPULATION AND SIZE


The incorporated city area covers approximately two square miles and has a population of around 5500, with an additional 5000 or more within a radius of 21/2 miles. Being the only incorporated community in a radius of 25 miles and with Person County having in excess of 25,000 population, Roxboro serves a wide area as a trade, employment and civic center.

ADD NEW LIFE TO YOUR COMMUNITY


There's no time for cat naps! The Finer Carolina 1959-60 Program is under way!


Add new life to your community! You can help landscape city ap- proaches, line streets with shade trees, and plant shrubbery and flowers in front of clean, comfortable homes. You can help rejuvenate your business section. Help make it a modern main street.


You add new life to your community when you and others work for a Finer Carolina! You will enjoy better living! Your income will grow if your town grows. Your town will grow if you make it more attrac. tive to outside industry and to your young people who are now mov- ing away!


No time for pussyfooting! Offer your services to the Finer Carolina Committee. They need you. In addition to usual Grand Prizes, your particular group or organization may win a cash award for an out- standing community development project.
