2022 Map of Kelford

About this map

The Kelford and Roxobel communities sit at the heart of this coastal plain survey, situated in a landscape defined by the winding course of the Cashie River and its various tributaries like Sandy Run and Ahoskie Cr. This region of Bertie County is characterized by its agricultural corridors and scattered wetlands, most notably the Walton Pecosin, a distinctive evergreen shrub bog typical of the North Carolina tidewater. The road network reflects a history of rural connectivity, with routes such as Harrells Siding Rd and Tyler School Rd linking various homesteads and local hubs. Genealogists will find particular value in the documentation of the Roxobel - Kelford Cem and Hoggard Cem, providing specific points for ancestral research. The map also captures the settlement at Lewiston Woodville and the edges of Aulander, illustrating the proximity of these historically significant North Carolina towns.
