1951 Map of Engelhard West

USGS Topo · Published 1983

About this map

Lake Mattamuskeet dominates the southern landscape of this coastal Hyde County quadrangle, where the Mattamuskeet National Wildlife Refuge preserves the intersection of wetlands and local agriculture. The mapping captures a distinct drainage network essential to this low-lying region, featuring the Jarvis Canal and Boundary Canal. Along the northeastern shores of the lake, the settlement of Engelhard serves as a local hub, connected by the 264 corridor. The presence of a Lookout Tower near the Refuge Bdy highlights the area's conservation and monitoring efforts during the mid-20th century. For those researching local history or genealogy, the map identifies specific landmarks like Pleasant Grove Ch and the Fulford Cem, which provide concrete reference points for family histories and historical land use in this specific corner of North Carolina's inner banks.
