Knotts Island and the intricate wetlands of the Currituck Sound define this maritime landscape at the eastern edge of North Carolina. The map documents a geography where land and water are nearly inseparable, connected by the Currituck - Knotts Island Ferry crossing Coinjock Bay and the Intracoastal Waterway. Along the shorelines and scattered islands, small family histories are anchored at sites like the Claudia Capps Home Place Cem and Ballance Cem.
