About this map

Croatan National Forest and the Croatan Game Land dominate this mid-century landscape in coastal North Carolina, where the low-lying terrain is defined by an intricate network of wetlands and drainage canals. The presence of North Canal, Middle Canal, and South Canal indicates a history of active water management within the Lakes Pocosin. Settlement is concentrated along the transport corridors, specifically the Atlantic and East Carolina railroad and the Nine Foot Road. The map documents the relationship between federal lands, including the boundary of Camp Lejeune, and local communities such as Havelock, Masontown, and Holly Springs. Genealogists may find value in the specific locations of Havelock Ch and scattered Cem labels near the Newport River, while the detailed labeling of water bodies like Southwest Prong Slocum Creek and Millis Swamp reveals the hydrological character of the Carteret and Craven county line.
