1902 Map of Parmele
USGS Topo · Published 1959About this map
Robersonville and Bethel anchor the rail-driven landscape of the Inner Coastal Plain at the turn of the century. The map reveals a complex network of trackage where the Atlantic Coast Line intersects various routes, including the Kinston Branch and the Plymouth Branch at the junction of Parmele. This rail infrastructure supported a local economy transitioning through the post-Civil War era, evidenced by the numerous small settlements like Speed, Oak City, and Conetoe that grew along these corridors.
