2010 Map of Norfleet

About this map

The Roanoke River snakes through this portion of eastern North Carolina, defining a landscape shaped by vast swamp systems and scattered rural settlements. Small communities like Norfleet and Fox Bark are situated among a complex network of wetlands, including Bull Neck Swamp, Cypress Swamp, and Kehukee Swamp. The infrastructure reflects a blend of traditional agricultural life and later developments, evidenced by the presence of Shields Commissary and the Ventosa Plantation Airport. Genealogists will find a high concentration of family burial sites such as the Rea Cemeteries, Bell Cemetery, and Barden Cemetery. Riverfront features like Woods Landing and George Hole indicate long-standing points of access to the water, while Turners Pond Dam shows local water management in the northern reaches of the quadrangle.
