1997 Map of Hobbsville

About this map

The Great Dismal Swamp anchors the northeast corner of this landscape, where the flat coastal plains of the Inner Banks meet dense wetland reaches. The Perquimans River meanders south through the center of the sheet, its basin dotted with numerous community anchors like Winslow Grove Ch and Riddicks Grove Ch. Settlement patterns follow the higher ground between watercourses, with Hobbsville and Belvidere serving as local hubs. The presence of an Old Railroad Grade running through Sandy Cross and toward the swamp suggests the area's historical reliance on timber and rail transport. Dozens of small family and community cemeteries are scattered across the terrain, particularly around crossroads like Trotville and Byrum Crossroads, offering significant detail for those tracing local lineages in this quiet corner of Perquimans and Gates counties.
