About this map

Farmville stands as the primary hub in this mid-2010s survey, defined by a dense grid of streets such as N Pitt St and W Church St. The town's historical geography is anchored by substantial burial grounds like Forest Hills Cem and Hollywood Cem, while the surrounding coastal plain landscape is shaped by the meandering Little Contentnea Cr. Smaller outlying communities such as Marlboro, Bell Arthur, and Lizzie illustrate the region's traditional settlement pattern across the Pitt and Greene county line.

The topography transitions into significant wetland features typical of eastern North Carolina, most notably the Half Moon Pocosin in the southern portion of the sheet. Aviation history is noted at Flanagan Field, while the drainage of the land is meticulously documented through features like Middle Swamp and Sandy Run. This map provides a clear record of the intersection between established municipal growth and the persistent natural watercourses and pocosin wetlands of the Inner Coastal Plain.
