1969 Map of Reelsboro

USGS Topo · Published 1983

About this map

Upper Broad Creek and its complex network of tributaries define this coastal plain landscape at the boundary of Pamlico and Craven counties. The settlement of Reelsboro serves as a local hub near the southern edge, while the small communities of Spring Hope and Olympia are linked by a series of rural routes including Casey Road and Brinson Road. This 1969 field-checked survey reveals an environment where agriculture and timber management intersect with extensive wetlands, such as Possum Swamp and Savannah Bridge Swamp. The presence of numerous small family or community burial sites, including Pipkin No 2 and Hollywood Cem, alongside the Spring Hope Ch, offers significant geographic data for genealogists tracing the distribution of residents across this low-lying terrain. To the north, the elevated ground of Stair Ridge provides a distinct contrast to the surrounding swamps and branches.
