Ulah, North Carolina

History

Ulah has, for most of its existence, been a little known community. The origin of the name Ulah may refer to Ulaid,a Gaelic over-kingdom in north-eastern Ireland during the Middle Ages. Ulaid gave its name to the province of Ulster where many settlers of North-Western Piedmont backcountry frontier came from via the Great Wagon road from Pennsylvania.[1]

Community

The Ulah area is home to many people that work in Asheboro, North Carolina.

Future

There has been talk about incorporating Ulah. The area is densely populated. If incorporated, Ulah would possibly be a tough competitor for Trinity in the title of second most populated city in Randolph County.
