2010 Map of Hillsville

About this map

Hillsville and its surrounding Carroll County countryside are defined by a network of family-named cemeteries and rural crossroads in this 2010 survey. Settlements such as Mabry Crossroads, Mitchell Crossroads, and Liberty Hill anchor the landscape, which is deeply etched by the winding course of Big Reed Island Creek and its many tributaries, including Buckhorn Creek and Little Snake Creek. The abundance of burial grounds, such as the John Patterson Webb Cemetery, Carter-Wilkerson Cemetery, and Montgomery-Smith Cemetery, provides a dense map of local genealogy and legacy families. High points like Witcher Knob and Huffman Knob rise above the valleys, while the Longshoal Lookout Tower stands as a prominent landmark on the northern ridge. The transportation network is a mix of older routes and newer infrastructure, represented by the William D Tomkins Memorial Bridge and the forested retreat of Camp Virginian.
