About this map

Cashie River and Roquist Creek dominate the drainage of this Bertie County landscape, where the rural settlements of Republican and Drew serve as central points for local navigation. The terrain is defined by its watercourses and swamps, including the Connartsa Swamp, which influence the layout of family-named thoroughfares such as Charles Taylor Rd and Charlie Harmon Rd. Historical industry is represented by Burdens Mill, located along a bend in the river, suggesting the local reliance on water power for milling operations into the modern era.

The transportation network relies on a mix of state routes and descriptive local paths, such as Roquist Pocosin Rd and Parkers School Rd, which provide access to interior farms and woodlots. The inclusion of Bazemore Park Rd and Old King Farm Rd reflects the persistence of family landholdings and small-scale community hubs in this part of North Carolina, captured just after the first decade of the millennium.
