About this map

Oak City and the neighboring community of Hassell anchor this survey of the low-lying coastal plain along the boundary of Martin and Edgecombe counties. The landscape is defined by the slow-moving waters of Conoho Creek, Crisp Creek, and Etheridge Swamp, which dictate the placement of local roads and the Seaboard Coast Line railroad. This environment fostered a dispersed settlement pattern centered on rural spiritual life, with numerous landmarks such as Merritts Chapel, Victory Mission, and Hatties Chapel appearing throughout the quadrangle.
