2019 Map of Gasburg

About this map

Lake Gaston dominates the southern landscape of this 2019 survey, where the waters of the Roanoke River basin cross the state line between Virginia and North Carolina. The map captures a transition from the agricultural uplands of Ebony and Ankum to the modern residential development lining the fingers of the reservoir. Numerous family burying grounds, including the Reid Cem, Kirkland Cem, and Powell Cem, are preserved across the interior, offering vital coordinates for genealogists. The creek networks of Pea Hill Cr, Lizard Cr, and Rattlesnake Cr dissect the terrain, while the settlement of Elams sits near the interstate border. This survey illustrates the contrast between established rural crossroads and the newer, winding lanes like Edwards Ridge Rd and Tidewater Dr that have redefined the shoreline of Brunswick County.
