2016 Map of Essex
USGS Topo · Published 2016About this map
Fishing Creek and its tributary, Little Fishing Creek, carve a winding path through the borderlands of Halifax and Nash counties in this modern survey. The rural landscape is defined by its water-rich geography, including the lowlands of White Oak Swamp, Gideon Swamp, and Crooked Swamp. Small agricultural settlements like Essex, Hollister, and Aventon anchor the road network, which remains largely rural with family-named routes like Lynch & Hedgepeth Rd and Evans Farm Rd.
