1977 Map of Kellum

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

The settlement of Kellum anchors this mid-1970s coastal plain survey in Onslow County, where the landscape is defined by the transition from established communities to the dense wetlands and managed timberlands. Much of the northern terrain is occupied by the expansive Hofmann Forest, a significant tract of North Carolina forestry history, alongside the distinct White Oak Pocosin to the east. These natural features represent a classic Carolina ecosystem, where the low elevation and acidic soil influenced local land use. The Seaboard Coast Line railroad cuts diagonally across the quadrangle, serving as a vital transportation artery connecting the rural communities and forest resources with larger markets. To the south, residential development begins to cluster near the Northeast Creek drainage, showing the early suburban growth patterns typical of this era in coastal North Carolina.
