About this map

Pamplico sits at the northern edge of this 1980s landscape, serving as a primary hub for a region defined by extensive wetlands and river systems. The Great Pee Dee River forms the northeastern boundary, featuring the prominent Dewitt Bluff, while the Lynches River cuts across the southwestern corner. Between these watercourses, the land is characterized by numerous bays and swamps, including Myers Bay, Cockfield Bay, and the sprawling Big Swamp.

Rural settlement patterns are clearly visible through several named intersections such as Butler Crossroads, Bazen Crossroads, and Poston Crossroads. Genealogists and local historians can trace community centers at Mt Zion Ch and Salem Ch, alongside smaller locales like Hannah, Fleet, and Forestville. The presence of the Old River Rd and the long Transmission Line indicates the infrastructure supporting these Pee Dee region communities during the late twentieth century.
