Spring Lake is a town in Cumberland County, North Carolina, United States. The 2010 census recorded the population at 11,964 people,〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Geographic Identifiers: 2010 Demographic Profile Data (G001): Spring Lake town, North Carolina )〕 with an estimated population in 2013 of 13,037.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Annual Estimates of the Resident Population: April 1, 2010 to July 1, 2013 (PEPANNRES): North Carolina Incorporated Places )〕 == History == The current name of the town first appeared around 1923 when Arthur Priddy opened the Spring Lake service station in relation to the lake (Spring Lake Pond) that ran beside the rail line. Previously, the area was called "Clayton Cut", due to the pathway cut that ran through the area where the railroad later resided, and also "Prince's Siding", after a man named Prince who owned a sawmill on this land. Spring Lake was officially incorporated on April 9, 1951. Grady Howard was named interim mayor on this date, and was officially elected the first mayor of Spring Lake on June 5, 1951. The modern growth spurt beginning in World War II is attributed to the proximity of Fort Bragg. Long Valley Farm was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1994. On 11/15/2015, John Livingston was shot dead when asking if police had a search warrant. 〔https://photographyisnotacrime.com/2015/11/north-carolina-deputies-shoot-and-kill-man-after-demanding-to-see-search-warrant/〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Spring Lake, North Carolina」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
