About this map

Aulander serves as a central hub in this corner of Bertie County, where a network of rural roads connects several small agrarian communities and crossroads. The landscape is defined by extensive wetland systems, most notably Connaritsa Swamp and Beaverdam Swamp, which wind between the low-lying agricultural fields. These waterways have historically influenced the placement of settlements and mills, such as Francis Mill in the southern reaches of the quadrangle.

Genealogists can trace local family landmarks and burial sites, including the Eastview Cemetery located just east of Aulander. The map documents numerous named locations that reflect the region's heritage, from the uniquely named Millennium to the clusters of Hexlena, Rhodes, and Burden. The intricate road network, featuring routes like Republican Rd and Early Station Rd, highlights the connectivity of these rural outposts at the start of the 21st century.
