1962 Map of Palmyra

USGS Topo · Published 1964

About this map

The Roanoke River dominates this 1962 landscape, carving a wide path through the fertile borderlands where Halifax, Bertie, and Martin Counties meet. The settlement of Palmyra and the adjacent Palmyra Station serve as the focal point for local agriculture, situated along the Atlantic Coast Line railroad. The map reveals a dense network of family and community landmarks, particularly on the western bluffs above the river bottoms. These include Roanoke Ch, Jones Chapel, and several family burial grounds such as Charleston Cem and Hyman Cem.
