1964 Map of Powhatan

About this map

Swift Creek and Middle Creek wind through the heart of Johnston County in this mid-1960s survey, illustrating a landscape defined by small rural settlements and an extensive network of country churches. The area's social fabric is visible through landmarks such as Short Journey Sch and numerous congregations including Elizabeth Ch, Johnston Union Ch, and Sanders Grove Ch. The map captures the agricultural and residential transition of the region, where older family-named cemeteries like Barham Cem and Langdon Cem sit near the newer developments of Whitley Heights. Industrial infrastructure is represented by the Southern railroad line and a major pipeline corridor that cuts across the northern terrain. In the southeast, the confluence of several branches leads toward the Neuse River, near the established town boundaries of Smithfield.
