1977 Map of Union
USGS Topo · Published 1977About this map
Potecasi Creek and its many winding tributaries, including Old Tree Swamp and Indian Creek, define the landscape of this portion of Hertford County in the late 1970s. The region is dotted with established small communities and crossroads such as Union, St John, and Fraziers Crossroads, interspersed with a high density of rural cemeteries and country churches like St Johns Ch. The transportation and industrial character of the era is visible in the route of the Seaboard Coast Line railroad passing through Earleys, and specialized infrastructure like the Drive-in Theater and Radio Tower (WRCS) near Poor Town. Academic and recreational development is represented by the Roanoke-Chowan Technical Institute and the Beechwood Country Club, while the presence of Sandpits and an Industrial Waste Pond points to the local land use and economic activities of the period.
