About this map

Rockingham serves as the focal point of this survey, surrounded by established residential clusters including West Rockingham, East Rockingham, and the uniquely named Honey Town. The landscape is dominated by the Pee Dee River and the southern reaches of Blewett Falls Lake to the west, while Hitchcock Creek and its various branches wind through the town center. The industrial and transportation identity of the area is underscored by the CSX Transportation rail lines and the Richmond County Airport situated to the southeast.

Local genealogy and neighborhood history are well-represented by numerous small communities such as Cordova, Piney Grove, and Midway. Researchers will find a high concentration of community landmarks, from the Cordova Sch to several local congregations like Sandy Grove Ch and Stelley Tabernacle Ch. Several burial grounds, including Northam Cem and Mispah Cem, are clearly marked alongside the network of family-named roads like Dockery Lk Rd and Isom Nichols Rd.
