About this map

Cross Hill serves as a central hub in this landscape where the boundaries of LaureNS CO and Newberry CO meet. The terrain is defined by a dense network of tributaries including Mudlick Cr, Campbell Cr, and Beaverdam Cr, which flow toward the expansive Lake Greenwood in the southwest corner. The settlement patterns reflect a rural history tied to local crossroads and family estates, evident in the numerous named routes like Puckett Ferry Rd and Old Milton Rd.

Genealogists will find significant value in the distribution of local burial grounds, such as Head Springs Cem near White Plains Crossroad and Bethabara Cem further south. The map also documents the transition from early transit to modern infrastructure, featuring Thomason Airfield near Mountville and the industrial-scale presence of the lake, which reshaped the local topography and property lines in the mid-20th century.
