1950 Map of Jones Bay

USGS Topo · Published 1952

About this map

Hobucken and the adjacent Spencer settlement anchor this coastal landscape where the Intracoastal Waterway cuts through the marshy terrain of Township No 4. This 1950s survey captures a critical nexus of water and land, showing a US Coast Guard Reservation positioned near the intersection of Goose Creek and the federal waterway project. The area is dominated by extensive wetlands, including the State Game Refuge and Cum Swamp, which transition into the wide reaches of Bonner Bay and the Neuse River. Coastal infrastructure is evidenced by Bills Creek Landing and numerous named points like Gale Creek Point and Maw Point. Genealogists may find interest in the isolated Cem near the northern boundary, while the detailed soundings and shoal markers like Maw Point Shoal provide a clear picture of mid-century maritime navigation and the intricate shoreline of Pamlico County.
