1906 Map of Hertford
USGS Topo · Published 1930About this map
Hertford serves as the focal point of this coastal North Carolina landscape, where the Norfolk and Southern railroad crosses the Perquimans River to connect the region's agricultural interior with the Albemarle Sound. The 1902–1904 survey reveals an intricate network of peninsulas or "necks," such as Durant Neck and Harvey Neck, which defined the economy and transit of the era. These landforms are dotted with small post offices and landings, including Durants Neck PO and Redbank Ldg, illustrating a time when water travel was as vital as the emerging rail lines.
