1951 Map of Masontown

About this map

Croatan National Forest dominates the landscape of this 1951 coastal survey, where the dense wetlands of Lakes Pocosin and White Oak transition into the headwaters of the Newport River. The map captures a unique coastal drainage system characterized by an intricate network of prongs and branches, such as Southwest Prong Slocum Creek and Milldam Branch. Human intervention is visible in the structured grid of the North Canal, Middle Canal, and South Canal near Camp Bryan. Local connectivity at mid-century relied on the Atlantic and East Carolina railroad and the descriptively named Nine Foot Road. Small settlements like Masontown and Havelock serve as focal points for the region, with Havelock Ch and a nearby Private Airstrip reflecting the community's local infrastructure during the early post-war period.
