About this map

The Yadkin River defines the southern reach of this landscape, winding through a region characterized by established agricultural communities and small residential clusters. Moving north from the river, the terrain transitions into a network of creek drainages including Fulton Cr and Peoples Cr, which helped shape the locations of long-standing crossroads like Advance and Elbaville. This 2013 survey illustrates the modern road infrastructure connecting historical pockets such as Heidleberg Settlement and Bixby.

Regional transportation is a prominent feature, with several specialized aviation sites present. Both the Twin Lakes Airport and the Marchmont Plantation Airpark provide local air access, while Clemmons Station sits in the northeast corner. The map also records several named hills and settlements, such as Mount Zion and Hickory Hill, offering a clear view of how development has followed the contours of the local waterways and historical routes through the county.
