2016 Map of Silver Hill

About this map

Drowning Creek forms the natural boundary between Scotland and Hoke Counties, winding through a landscape defined by its many water bodies and family-named landmarks. The area around Wagram and Silver Hill shows a network of local roads such as Hill Creek Rd and N Turnpike Rd that connect rural residential clusters with historic burial grounds. Genealogists can identify several ancestral sites, including McNeill Cem and Wrights Cem, which are tucked away near the headwaters of Little Shoe Heel Cr. The presence of Monroe Mill Pond and Newtons Pond suggests a legacy of local water management and industry in this Sandhills region. Further north, the developed area of Deercroft sits near Dixie Pond, contrasting with the more dispersed settlements of Oak Hill and Spring Hill.
