2015 Map of Hickory

About this map

Hickory and Newton anchor this Newton County landscape, where the town of Hickory serves as a central hub for a dense network of local roads including W College St and Emanuel St. The surrounding countryside is defined by the headwaters and tributaries of Potterchitto Cr and Bogue Falema Cr, which meander through a terrain marked by family-named routes like Gentry Rd and Ferguson Rd. For genealogists and local historians, the sheet is particularly valuable for its record of community landmarks, including the Rose Field church site and several burial grounds like Old Norman Cem and Old Good Hope Cem. The presence of the Experiment Station Rd suggests a landscape shaped by agricultural research and development alongside smaller settlements like Poplar Springs and Liberty.
