About this map

The Trent River meanders through Jones County, anchoring a landscape defined by riverside activity and small-town growth as seen in this 2013 survey. The county seat of Trenton is situated near the fork of Crooked Run and the river, where Brock Pond marks the local geography. Downriver toward Pollocksville, a series of named landings—including White Bank Landing, Horse Landing, and Foscue Landing—point to the historical and modern importance of the river for transport and access.

Away from the water, the map documents the rural road networks connecting inland points like Olivers Crossroads. The eastern edge of the quadrangle includes the Oak Grove Marine Corps Outlying Field, illustrating the area's ongoing military significance. Numerous smaller waterways such as Musselshell Cr, Beaverdam Creek, and French Br drain the surrounding lowlands, while landmarks like Quaker Bridge provide specific points of interest for local historians and genealogists tracing family land or travel routes.
