1973 Map of Kelford
USGS Topo · Published 1977About this map
The agricultural landscape of Bertie County is centered around the towns of Kelford and Roxobel in this 1970s survey. The Seaboard Coast Line railroad creates a diagonal axis through the territory, linking these rural hubs and facilitating the regional peanut economy, evidenced by the Peanut Belt Research Station near Lewiston. This era represents a period of consolidated rural education, shown by the Roxobel-Kelford Sch and West Bertie Sch, while numerous unnamed cemeteries (marked as Cem) are scattered across family farmlands and churchyards like those of Beautiful Zion Ch and Luella Ch. The drainage patterns of the Cashie River and Walton Swamp dominate the lower elevations, while several Sandpit sites indicate local mineral extraction. The map also captures the jurisdictional meeting point where Hertford Co and Northampton Co borders intersect.
