About this map

The Upper Little River and Little River meander through this portion of Harnett County, defining a landscape of low-lying wetlands and established rural communities. The unincorporated settlement of Bunnlevel serves as a central point, surrounded by numerous family-named roads and landmarks that reflect a deep-rooted local history. Further south, the map captures the transition into Cumberland County near Linden, where the river system continues to influence land use and property boundaries.

Genealogists can trace several historic burial sites, including Friendship Cem, Bunnlevel Cem, and McArtan Cem, which are scattered throughout the agricultural and wooded parcels. Distinctive terrain features like Big Ridge and Killens Hill rise above the surrounding Gum Swamp and Big Swamp, while smaller nodes of habitation like Fonville and Walkertown indicate the area's dispersed settlement pattern. The northern reaches include a portion of Lillington and the Pine Burr Golf Course, showing the modern evolution of this traditional river-valley landscape.
