1950 Map of New Bern
USGS Topo · Published 1977About this map
The confluence of the Neuse River and Trent River anchors this 1950s perspective of New Bern, a landscape where river commerce and rail lines meet the expanding timberlands of the Croatan National Forest. The urban core of New Bern is dense with historical markers, including the Courthouse, Hospital, and several historic burial grounds such as Cedar Grove Cem and Greenwood Cem. Across the water, the smaller settlements of Bridgeton and James City are connected by bridge and ferry crossings, while the Atlantic and East Carolina railroad bisects the terrain.
