1997 Map of Norfleet

USGS Topo · Published 2000

About this map

The Roanoke River dominates this landscape, winding through a dense network of wetlands where Northampton, Halifax, and Bertie counties meet. The terrain is defined by sprawling bottomlands such as Bull Neck Swamp, Quinine Swamp, and Cypress Swamp, creating a complex drainage system punctuated by family-named landmarks. The small community of Norfleet serves as a local anchor near St Stevens Ch, while the surrounding timber and agricultural lands are dotted with private burial grounds like Norfleet Cem and Hall Cem. This survey illustrates the intricate relationship between the river’s meandering path and the early settlement patterns of the region, where churches like William Chapel and Sandy Run Ch provide vital genealogical touchpoints. Notable water features, including the uniquely named Dynamite Lake and George Hole, suggest a landscape shaped by both natural flooding and local human activity.
