2016 Map of Hookerton

About this map

Contentnea Creek winds through this coastal plain landscape, defining the topography of Greene County and neighboring Lenoir and Pitt counties. The settlement of Hookerton serves as a central hub, surrounded by a network of smaller communities including Maury, Ormondsville, and Hugo. This modern survey illustrates the persistent rural character of the region, where unique wetland features like Half Moon Pocosin and Rices Pocosin contrast with the agricultural road network. Local history is anchored by landmarks such as the Rainbow Cem near Rainbow Cr, while the aviation footprint of Chase Field sits just north of the Hookerton town center. The drainage patterns of Mussel Run, Beaverdam Run, and Wheat Swamp further reveal the intricate water system that has influenced land use and property boundaries for generations.
