2016 Map of Moriah
USGS Topo · Published 2016About this map
Moriah serves as the central hub of this rural landscape along the Person and Granville county line. The terrain is defined by the winding course of the Tar River and its various tributaries, including Rock Fork Br and Cub Cr. This 2016 survey illustrates a community deeply rooted in its geography, where modern roads like Oxford Rd follow long-established routes between timbered hills and agricultural clearings. Local history is anchored by sites such as the Mount Harmony Cem, while the industrial and natural character of the area is highlighted by Pyrophyllite Mine Lake and Uzzles Lake. A network of family-named roads, from Tingen Mine Rd to Marvin Gill Rd, suggests a landscape shaped by generations of local residents and landholders in this Piedmont region.
