About this map

The town of Salemburg serves as the focal point for this survey of rural Sampson County, where the landscape is defined by the winding course of Little Coharie Cr and its associated wetlands. The area's agricultural and social fabric is revealed through numerous family-named landmarks and rural outposts like Halls Store and Rebel City. Extensive drainage systems including Big Swamp, Jones Swamp, and Caesar Swamp segment the terrain, while local industry and recreation are represented by Crumpler Millpond and McLambs Pond to the northeast.

Local history and genealogy are well-preserved in the distribution of family burial grounds, such as the Minson M Williams Memorial Cem, Halls Cem, and Butler Cem. The map also highlights modern infrastructure alongside these traditional sites, including the Triple F Airpark situated south of Rebel City. The network of secondary roads, from Huntley School Rd to Welcome School Rd, traces the evolution of rural transit in this part of the North Carolina coastal plain.
