About this map

The Smith River winds across the state line between Virginia and North Carolina, anchoring a landscape where the Piedmont's rolling terrain meets the outskirts of Eden. This modern survey documents the suburban and rural transition of Rockingham and Henry Counties, capturing the development of neighborhoods like Marrowbone Heights, Shannon Hills, and Sheffield Hill. The map provides significant detail for local historians, identifying several burial grounds including Overlook Cem and Woodlawn Cem near Fairview.

Hydrographic features such as Matrimony Cr and Turkeycock Cr define the drainage patterns of the area, while the meandering river forms distinctive land features like The Bend. The presence of Dumaines Lake and the prominent Drag Mtn offer clear landmarks within this interstate corridor. Transportation is centered on the Us HWY 220 and State HWY 14 networks, which link the northern settlements of Ridgeway and Irisburg to the commercial center in the south.
