2019 Map of Vandemere

About this map

Vandemere and Bayboro anchor this coastal landscape where the Bay River meets a complex network of creeks and marshes. The geography is defined by its maritime orientation, with numerous family and descriptive landmarks such as Flea Point, Powers Point, and Graveyard Point marking the irregular shoreline. The interior transition from Gum Swamp down to the brackish waters of Mason Creek and Rice Creek reveals the low-lying character of Pamlico County, where small settlements like Hollyville, Maribel, and Stonewall are linked by a web of local roads such as Lumber Landing Rd and Pennsylvania Ave. This survey captures the traditional coastal layout before modern development significantly altered the rural pockets of Florence and The Hammock. Researchers will find interest in the specific placement of municipal landmarks like the Post Office and various local cemeteries that denote the area's long-established communities.
