About this map

B Everett Jordan Lake dominates the eastern half of this landscape, its waters reaching deep into former creek valleys following the completion of the B Everett Jordan Dam. To the west, the Haw River flows toward its junction with the New Hope River, shaping the terrain around Gunter-Harris Island. This 1969 survey, revised with 1980 photogrammetric data, captures the region's transition as the reservoir changed the local geography. Human settlement is centered around Griffins Crossroads and Wilsonville, with the Seaboard Coast Line railroad cutting across the southern portion of the sheet. Community life is anchored by numerous rural congregations, including Pleasant Hill Ch, Hanks Chapel, and Providence Ch. The convergence of the Deep River and Haw River at the southern edge marks a significant hydrologic crossroads near Moncure Sch.
