About this map

Enfield and the adjacent neighborhood of Sherrod Hts anchor this map of northeastern North Carolina, situated where the Atlantic Coast Line rail corridor meets a landscape of expansive wetlands. The town's grid is dense with named streets like Halifax St and S Martin Luther King Ave, reflecting its role as a regional hub. Surrounding the settlement, the terrain is defined by the winding course of Fishing Creek and numerous wetlands including Burnt Coat Swamp, Breeches Swamp, and Beaverdam Swamp.

Family history and local geography are recorded through a high density of small burial grounds, including the Old Bricks Cem, Pittman Cem, and Pope Cem. The map captures the tri-county junction where Halifax, Nash, and Edgecombe counties meet. Notable local landmarks such as Bellamys Bridge and the Dunroamin Farms Airport point to the rural infrastructure supporting this agricultural and swamp-bordering community.
