About this map

Raft Swamp and its numerous tributaries dominate this landscape northwest of Lumberton, where slow-moving water networks like Richland Swamp and Holy Swamp define the rural topography. The area is characterized by a high concentration of family and community burial grounds, including the McNeill Cemetery, Maynor Cemetery, and Lowry Cemetery, which offer significant value for genealogical research in Robeson County.

Settlement patterns are centered around the community of Saddletree and the village of Lowe, connected by a web of local routes such as Shannon Rd and Oakgrove Church Rd. Near the southern edge of the sheet, the Lumber River begins its winding course, flanked by newer developments like those near Meadowbrook Cemetery and the Gardens of Faith. This 2010 survey provides a clear view of the agricultural and residential transition occurring just outside the city limits.
