2011 Map of Tabor City West

About this map

Tory Island and the complex wetlands of Gapway Swamp define the borderlands between North and South Carolina in this 2011 survey. The landscape is characterized by a high concentration of family and community burial grounds, such as Lovett Cemetery, Blanton Cemetery, and Green Sea Cemetery, which offer significant value for genealogical research in this rural corridor. Small settlements like Cherry Grove and Green Sea anchor the region, connected by a network of local roads including Fair Bluff Hwy and Sidney Cherry Grove Rd. The presence of the Turbeville Airport near Richardson Pond indicates the localized infrastructure serving these communities. This map documents the hydrologic patterns of the coastal plain, tracing numerous branches such as Crooked Run Branch and Mill Branch as they wind through the agricultural and swampy terrain.
