1948 Map of North Bay

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

Cedar Island and the marshy expanses of Hog Island define this coastal landscape as it was documented in the late 1940s. Situated between West Bay and the open Pamlico Sound, the area is characterized by a network of intricate waterways including Snake Gut, Deep Slough, and Fullers Ditch. The small settlement of Goodwin Hills sits near the southern edge, connected by the lone terrestrial corridor of Cedar Island Road. This survey, compiled from 1946 aerial photography, captures a transitional coastal environment where landmarks like Sandy Landing and Point of Grass provided essential orientation for local mariners and residents. The layout of the islands, including Hunting Island and Beach Island, shows the natural fragmentation of the shoreline before significant modern development altered these low-lying landforms.
