About this map

Clinton serves as the focal point of this Sampson County survey, showcasing the southern expansion of the city into a landscape defined by meandering coastal plain watercourses. The urban grid gives way to rural crossroads and small communities such as Johnsontown, Piney Ridge, and Butlers Crossroads. Infrastructure like the Clinton-Sampson County Airport and Sampson Community College anchor the northwestern corner, while Springdale Cemetery provides a point of interest for genealogical researchers.

The hydrology of the region is notably intricate, with the Great Coharie Creek system branching into numerous smaller runs. To the east and south, family-named landmarks such as Taylors Bridge and Moltonville appear alongside a network of creeks including Buckhorn Creek, Rocky Marsh Creek, and Rowan Branch. Small bodies of water like Best Pond and Chestnut Pond further characterize this well-watered agricultural and residential district.
