About this map

Lumber Bridge and Parkton anchor the southern reaches of this landscape, where the agricultural plains of the inner coastal plain meet an intricate network of wetlands. This territory is defined by its drainage patterns, with Little Marsh Swamp and Bogue Swamp threading through the countryside between small rural communities like Arabia and Sandy Grove. The area serves as a significant jurisdictional crossroads, where the borders of Cumberland, Hoke, and Robeson counties converge amidst a patchwork of farms and wooded tracts.

Evidence of long-standing local heritage is visible in the placement of McGougan Cem and Wood Cem, while the northern portion of the map shows the suburban expansion of Fayetteville and Hope Mills. Significant waterways such as Rockfish Creek and Puppy Cr dominate the northern drainage, while specialized landing strips like E T Field and Hall Field reflect the region's relationship with aviation and rural land use.
