1939 Map of Moyock

USGS Topo · Published 1959

About this map

The Albemarle and Chesapeake Canal and the Intracoastal Waterway define the water-bound economy of the Virginia-North Carolina borderlands during the late 1930s. This survey illustrates a landscape of dense swamps and tidewater tributaries, including the North Landing River and Northwest River, which dictated the location of early crossings and landings. Settlement patterns follow the higher ground and the Norfolk Southern rail line, connecting communities like Moyock and Fentress.
