2002 Map of Russellville

About this map

Brown Creek and its many tributaries, including Little Brown Creek and Pinch Gut Creek, carve through this section of Anson County. The landscape is dotted with rural religious centers such as Unity Chapel, West Rocky Ford Ch, and New Grove Ch, serving the dispersed population around Polkton and Russellville. In the north, a State Prison Camp and a Quarry indicate the area's institutional and industrial presence, while the Drive-in Theater near the eastern edge provides a glimpse into the local social life of the era. The terrain rises toward the south at Gordon Mountain and Becky Hill, where the drainage network shifts toward Jones Cr. This survey captures the transition between the rolling Piedmont uplands and the creek bottoms that have historically defined the region's agricultural and settlement patterns.
