About this map

Rose Hill and Teachey anchor this coastal plain landscape in Duplin County, defined by a complex network of blackwater tributaries and agricultural homesteads. The terrain is marked by extensive wetlands and meadows, most notably Rockfish Meadows and the winding course of Rockfish Creek. Settlement patterns follow the higher ground between these drainages, with local history embedded in names like Brices Crossroads and Concord.

Transport and recreation are represented by the Rose Hill Speedway near Lake Tut and the Safe Field Airport to the south. Small family-named landmarks and water crossings, such as Bear Ford and Cabin Branch, reveal the rural infrastructure of the early 21st century. The map detail highlights the numerous creeks and branches, including Fussell Mill Branch and Taylors Creek, which have historically dictated the placement of roads like Cornwallis Road and Corinth Church Road.
