1997 Map of Peacocks Crossroads

About this map

Peacocks Crossroads and Blackmon Crossroads anchor a landscape defined by its rural intersections and agricultural drainage in the late 1990s. The region is marked by a complex network of wetlands and creeks, including the extensive John H Parker Pond Swamp and the uniquely named drainage known as The Dismal. Local community life is centered around rural institutions like the Meadow School and several country churches such as Holly Grove Ch and New Zealand Ch. This survey provides a clear view of the shifting county lines at the Johnston Co Sampson Co boundary, where it follows an Indefinite Boundary. The map also captures infrastructure developments like the Pipeline and the Interchange 334, reflecting the modernization of this agricultural corridor while naming specific family landmarks like the Barefoot Cem.
