About this map

Upper Little River meanders across this Harnett County landscape, carving a wide valley that defines the local geography. In 2016, the area maintains its rural character with small crossroads communities and family-named landmarks like Norrington Crossroads and Hams Hill. The map reveals a dense network of country roads, many named for local families and historic institutions, such as Spring Hill Church Rd and Leaflet Church Rd.

Genealogists and local historians will find significant value in the distribution of family burial grounds, including Rogers Cem and Darroch Cem, situated near traditional settlements like Hairtown and Spring Hill. The drainage patterns of N Prong Anderson Cr and S Prong Anderson Cr contribute to numerous small bodies of water such as Youngs Pond and Kellys Pond, which have historically influenced the placement of farms and homesteads throughout the region.
