1976 Map of Fair Bluff

About this map

Lumber River snakes through the heart of this North Carolina landscape, its dark, winding course defining the dense wetlands between Fair Bluff and the South Carolina border. This orthophotoquad, derived from 1976 aerial photography, provides a stark visual record of the region's agricultural patterns and forested floodplains during the late twentieth century. In the southeast, the concentrated grid of Fair Bluff stands as the primary center of activity, while smaller settlements like Marietta and Causey anchor the surrounding rural expanse. The map’s photographic detail reveals the intricate patchwork of cleared fields and drainage networks that characterize this part of Columbus County, showing the proximity of human settlement to the river’s natural, meandering path.
