About this map

The low-lying wetlands of Roquist Pocosin dominate the southwestern reaches of this Bertie County landscape, giving way to a network of blackwater streams and agricultural clearings. The Cashie River meanders through the northern section, joined by the slow waters of Connaritsa Swamp and Whiteoak Swamp. These water systems define the geography, where small settlements like Republican and Drew are connected by a web of local roads such as Governors Rd and Republican Rd.

Evidence of historical land use is found in labels like Parkers School Rd and Old King Farm Rd, suggesting long-standing family properties and rural infrastructure. The eastern terrain is marked by Chiska Cr, while Coniott Cr flows at the southern edge. This survey provides a modern look at the traditional pocosin and swamp forest ecosystems of the Inner Banks, showing how topography and drainage continue to dictate the pattern of human habitation and transit in rural North Carolina.
