2022 Map of Whaleyville

USGS Topo · Published 2022

About this map

Whaleyville and Somerton anchor the northern landscape of this Virginia-North Carolina borderland, where the terrain is defined by a complex network of wetlands including Quaker Swamp and Dragon Swamp. The area reflects a deeply rooted rural history, preserved through numerous small family burial grounds such as the John T Cross Family Cem and the Speight Josher Family Cem. To the south, across the state line in Gates Co, the settlements of Hazelton and Willeyton are situated near unique ecological features like the Black Mingle Pocosin and Hall Pocosin. The presence of an Old Rail Bed near Drum Hill suggests the historical importance of timber or agricultural transport through these dense swamps. Aviation markers like the Umphlett Airstrip and Jiles Field provide modern landmarks amidst the traditional farming and church communities centered around Savages Methodist Church Cem.
