1962 Map of Tabor City West

USGS Topo · Published 1964

About this map

Gapway Swamp and Mitchell Swamp dominate this 1962 topographical survey of the borderlands between North Carolina and South Carolina. The landscape is characterized by its distinctive elliptical wetlands, labeled as "bays," including Feathery Bay, Wolf Pen Bay, and Grassy Bay. These geological formations, unique to the Atlantic coastal plain, dictate the placement of local settlements and transit. At the southeastern corner, Tabor City serves as a local hub, where the Atlantic Coast Line railroad runs parallel to the state line. Genealogists will find a wealth of family-named landmarks and cemeteries scattered across the rural landscape, from Williamson Cem in the west to Blanton Cem near the southern border. Along the swamp edges, Richardson Pond and Buffkin Pond provide local water sources near the community of Cherry Grove.
