Analysis of information sources in references of the Wikipedia article "Maiden, North Carolina" in English language version.
The founding of Maiden was not an accident, but was the result of a definite purpose-the outgrowth of the business experience of several men. It was to be a cotton mill site, and a trading center. The town was incorporated on March 7, 1883...Maiden's act of incorporation names J. P. Rabb as mayor, and Alexander Keener, Alexander Cline and Amzi Stine as commissioners.
