The rolling Anson County uplands are defined here by the headwaters of Brown Creek and Jones Creek in the early 1970s. The northern edge of the landscape is traced by the Seaboard Coast Line railroad, which passes through the community of Russellville and near a local Drive-in Theater. Further west, the terrain rises toward Gordon Mountain and Becky Hill, punctuated by small rural congregations such as New Grove Ch and Poplar Hill Ch. Evidence of local industry and infrastructure is visible at the Quarry near Little Brown Creek and the State Prison Camp located south of the rail line. This survey captures a specific rural network of family-named creeks and churches, providing a detailed record of the area before modern development altered these traditional community hubs and travel corridors.
