2016 Map of Salemburg

About this map

Salemburg serves as the primary municipal center in this section of Sampson County, characterized by a transition from organized town streets to the expansive coastal plain drainage basins of the Little Coharie Cr and Big Swamp. The landscape is dotted with small, historically significant nodes like Halls Store, Rebel City, and Huntley, reflecting the decentralized rural commerce of the region. Local genealogy is well-represented through family-named landmarks such as Williams Cem, Halls Cem, and Butler Cem, alongside private infrastructure like the Triple F Airpark. Water management and historical industry are evident in features such as Crumpler Millpond and Mathews Pond, while the presence of Piney Pocosin in the southwest indicates the unique boggy terrain typical of the North Carolina tidewater. This network of backroads, including Hayes Mill Rd and Welcome School Rd, connects the scattered farms and homesteads to the established center at Salemburg.
