1997 Map of Ellisboro

About this map

Hogans Creek and Jacobs Creek carve through the landscape of southern Rockingham County, leading north toward the Dan River. This area is characterized by a high density of rural religious centers that anchored local life in the late twentieth century, including Ellisboro Ch and Sardis Ch. The settlement of Ellisboro serves as a central point, while the smaller community of Intelligence sits to the northeast. Cultural landmarks such as a Drive-In Theater and numerous family or community burying grounds like Woodland Cem reflect the social fabric of the Piedmont region. Near the southern border, the Rockingham and Guilford County line meets Troublesome Creek, where several pipelines intersect the rural terrain, marking the intersection of traditional agricultural land with modern infrastructure.
