1953 Map of Frying Pan

USGS Topo · Published 1956

About this map

Gum Neck dominates this coastal landscape in the early 1950s, a peninsula defined by the expansive waters of the Alligator River and the inlet known as The Frying Pan. The small settlement of Frying Pan is positioned along the Frying Pan Road, serving as a focal point for local life alongside Free Union Ch and a nearby Cem. This survey illustrates a remote corner of eastern North Carolina where transport shifted from the winding Goose Creek to the engineered Basnight Canal.
