About this map

Ansonville serves as the primary settlement in this portion of Anson County, positioned near the headwaters of Pressley Creek and Permetter Branch. The landscape is heavily defined by the wide course of the Pee Dee River, which marks the northeastern boundary and contains significant landforms like Leak Island and Buzzard Island. Historical river crossings and infrastructure are well-documented, including the site of Old Leak Ferry and the Bennett Bridge crossing over Brown Creek.

Genealogists and local historians can locate several family and community landmarks, such as Bethlehem Cemetery, Legrand Cemetery, and the uniquely named Machine House Cemetery. The southern portion of the map transition into more modern infrastructure with the Anson County Airport and Wadesboro Airport near the community of Pinkston. This 2010 survey provides a clear view of the rural road network, showing how routes like Thomasville RD and Leak Ferry RD connect these disparate settlements and river landings.
