What's more, Frenchtown is a charming and scenic place to visit, walk or bike our canal paths, spend a day in one of our spas, and perhaps catch a play with our River Union Stage. We host three big festivals a year: for 2007 the Wine and Art Weekend (May 5-6), Bastille Weekend (July 14-15) and RiverFest (Sept 1-3).

The town of Wallace was first known as Duplin Crossroads and was incorporated into existence in 1873. Later in 1899, the town fathers decided to adopt the new name, Wallace, to honor Stephen D. Wallace, an official of the Atlantic Coast Line Railroad. Wallace is Duplin County's largest population and retail trade center serving over 50,000 people in a surrounding three county area.
