2019 Map of Pantego

About this map

Belhaven serves as the coastal anchor of this coastal North Carolina landscape, where the town street grid meets the waters of Pantego Creek and Shoemaker Cr. The region is defined by a dense network of canals and creeks, such as the Broad Creek Canal and Deep Run, which drain the low-lying interior toward the Pungo River. Smaller settlements like Pantego, Yeatesville, and Smithtown are linked by rural routes that navigate around terrain features like Hell Swamp. Genealogists may find interest in the location of Oddfellows Cem near the coast or family-named landmarks like Stotesberry Point and Gaylord. The map illustrates a landscape shaped by water, with numerous named points including Graveyard Point, Windmill Point, and Persimmon Tree Point jutting into the expansive Pungo Creek estuary.
