About this map

McLean Cemetery, Ellerbe Cemetery, and Watson Cemetery dot the landscape of Richmond County, offering a glimpse into the family lineages of this rural North Carolina region. The 2010 survey highlights a terrain defined by extensive water systems, including Millstone Lake and the winding Bells Creek, which feed into the larger Beaver Dam Creek. This area is characterized by the managed lands of the Sandhill Game Management, where the network of forest roads and trails supports local conservation and recreation.

Community landmarks such as Camp Millstone are situated near the headwaters of Millstone Creek, while the southern portion of the map transitions toward more developed pond systems like Green Lake Acres Pond and Ledbetter Lake. The presence of several family-named burial grounds, such as Rourks Cemetery and Gibson Cemetery, provides a clear spatial record for genealogists tracing local history through the early 21st century.
