2010 Map of Red Oak

About this map

Red Oak serves as a central hub for this rural portion of Nash County, where a dense network of family-named cemeteries and crossroads settlements defines the local landscape. The map reveals the intricate drainage patterns of Sandy Creek, Swift Creek, and Pig Basket Creek, which are punctuated by engineered landmarks like the Coopers Pond Dam and Collins Pond Dam. A high concentration of family burial grounds, including the Boseman Cemetery, Arrington Cemetery, and Hedgepeth Cemetery, indicates deep generational roots across this agricultural region. Historic routes like Wheeles Cabin Rd and Taylors Store Rd connect scattered outposts such as Taylors Store and Hilliardston, providing a detailed look at the rural infrastructure and land divisions that have persisted into the twenty-first century.
