===Townships=== By the requirements of the North Carolina Constitution of 1868, the county was divided into townships. Previous to that time, the subdivisions were Captain's Districts. While the Captain's Districts referred primarily to the militia, it served also for the election precinct, the tax listing and tax collecting district.<ref name="Constitution">{{cite web|url=https://www.ncleg.net/library/Documents/Constitution_1868.pdf |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130919003045/http://www.ncleg.net/library/Documents/Constitution_1868.pdf |archive-date=September 19, 2013 |url-status=live|title=North Carolina Constitution|year=1868}}</ref> The following townships in Rowan County were created in 1868: {{div col|colwidth=22em}} * [[Atwell Township, Rowan County, North Carolina|Atwell]] * [[China Grove Township, Rowan County, North Carolina|China Grove]] * [[Cleveland Township, Rowan County, North Carolina|Cleveland]] * [[Franklin Township, Rowan County, North Carolina|Franklin]] * [[Gold Hill Township, Rowan County, North Carolina|Gold Hill]] * [[Litaker Township, Rowan County, North Carolina|Litaker]] * [[Locke Township, Rowan County, North Carolina|Locke]] * [[Morgan Township, Rowan County, North Carolina|Morgan]] * [[Mount Ulla Township, Rowan County, North Carolina|Mount Ulla]] * [[Providence Township, Rowan County, North Carolina|Providence]] * [[Salisbury Township, Rowan County, North Carolina|Salisbury]] * [[Scotch Irish Township, Rowan County, North Carolina|Scotch Irish]] * [[Steele Township, Rowan County, North Carolina|Steele]] * [[Unity Township, Rowan County, North Carolina|Unity]] {{div col end}}
