About this map

The White Oak Pocosin dominates this landscape on the border of Jones and Onslow counties, illustrating the unique wetland ecology of coastal North Carolina. This map details a rural geography where the White Oak River snakes through dense marshland, fed by numerous small tributaries including Mundine Br, Beaverdam Br, and Little Hell Cr. Human presence is defined by isolated settlements and agricultural landmarks like Emmett, Olivers Crossroads, and Parker Field. The network of local routes, such as Lees Chapel Rd and White Oak River Rd, provides access to private tracts and remote aviation points like Bell Strip. The inclusion of Gibson Bridge and Stoney Cut Rd highlights the vital importance of crossings and drainage in this water-heavy terrain.
