About this map

Kenansville serves as the focal point of this Duplin County landscape, situated at a vital crossroads surrounded by a complex network of wetlands and creeks. The town's layout is defined by its proximity to low-lying drainage systems like Tea Swamp and Grove Creek, which dictate the local topography and historical development patterns. The intersection of major routes like Sarecta Rd and N Dobson Chapel Rd highlights the area's role as a regional connector.

Genealogists and local historians can trace legacy land divisions and family connections through numerous named roads such as Graham Dobson Rd and JJ Brown Ln. Landmarks such as the Routledge Cemetery and the P B Raiford Airport to the northwest provide specific points of interest for historical research. The presence of water bodies like Stocking Head Creek and Maxwell Creek in the south illustrates the hydrological character that has shaped agricultural and settlement life in this part of North Carolina.
