About this map

The town of Faison serves as the primary hub in this corner of Duplin County, featuring the Faison Post Office and a grid of streets positioned at the intersection of local routes. The surrounding landscape is defined by an extensive network of wetlands and creeks, including Six Runs Creek and the expansive Tenmile Swamp, which dictate the placement of rural settlements and transport corridors.

Smaller community clusters such as Poplar Grove, Hatcher, and Hargrove Crossroads are connected by a web of roads bearing local family and descriptive names, like Beulah Church Rd and Cabin Museum Rd. To the east, Bowden Millpond and Bear Swamp indicate the low-lying, water-rich nature of the terrain. The presence of Lake Artesia and numerous named branches, such as Clifton Branch and Reed Branch, underscores a geography where agricultural drainage and natural watercourses have historically shaped land use and property boundaries.
