1981 Map of Gatesville
USGS Topo · Published 1992About this map
Gatesville serves as the focal point for this Gates County landscape, which is defined by the dense wetlands of the Chowan River floodplain. The interior terrain is characterized by large wooded basins like Whiteoak Pocosin and Horsepen Pocosin, broken up by family-named settlements and crossroads. The rural character of the area is emphasized by the high concentration of country churches, including Kittrells Ch, Ballards Grove Ch, and Cool Spring Ch, many with adjacent cemeteries that offer significant value for genealogical research.
