2019 Map of Jackson

About this map

Jackson and Seaboard anchor this portrait of Northampton County, where the landscape is defined by the winding drainages of the Wiccacane Swamp and Gumberry Swamp. At Jackson, the street grid extends from W Jefferson St and E Jefferson St, while to the north, Seaboard is shaped by the corridor of Railroad St. Between these primary settlements, smaller communities like Pleasant Grove and Gumberry sit along rural connectors. The topography is marked by significant water features such as Boones Millpond and Taylors Millpond, reflecting the importance of controlled waterways in this part of North Carolina. Local history is etched into the landscape at Phillips Cem and along family-named routes like Henry Kee Rd and Buck Howell Rd, which provide clear markers for genealogical research and property identification within these traditional coastal plain drainage basins.
