About this map

The Northeast Cape Fear River meanders through this portion of eastern North Carolina, defining a landscape of low-lying wetlands and agricultural stretches in 2010. The settlement of Albertson serves as a central hub, surrounded by smaller communities such as Kornegay, Leon, and Herrings Crossroads. The topography is marked by a dense network of tributaries including Burn Coat Creek, Panther Creek, and Sandy Run, which feed into larger water bodies like Maxwell Millpond.

Genealogists will find several family-named landmarks and burial sites, including Taylor Cemetery, Westbrook Cemetery, and Gradys Cemetery. Notable infrastructure of the era includes the Pink Hill Lookout Tower and Millers Bridge, which provides a crossing over the river. The road network, featuring names like Sheep Pasture Rd and Tapp Farm Rd, reflects the longstanding rural and agricultural character of the region.
