1984 Map of Stella

USGS Topo · Published 1991

About this map

The White Oak River defines the landscape of this coastal plain region, serving as the boundary between Jones, Carteret, and Onslow counties. Small agricultural and riverside settlements like Stella and Silverdale are connected by a network of rural roads and family-named landmarks. The presence of the Croatan National Forest and the northern edge of Camp Lejeune indicate a landscape shaped by both federal conservation and military use during the late twentieth century. Genealogists will find a wealth of local landmarks, including St Stephens Ch, Davis Chapel, and the Tabernacle Sch. Industrial and transportation features such as the Seaboard railroad line in the northwest corner and a Quarry near the Jones County line provide evidence of the local economy. From the wetlands of Black Swamp to the river landing at Elm Landing, the map records a specific era of coastal North Carolina life before significant modern development altered these small communities.
