2022 Map of Weeksville

About this map

The Pasquotank River and Albemarle Sound define the watery boundaries of this coastal landscape, where the settlements of Weeksville and Salem sit among a dense network of family cemeteries and church plots. This region is characterized by its intricate tidal creeks, such as Newbegun Creek and Big Flatty Creek, which carve into the low-lying terrain. The map reveals a deep genealogical record, preserving the locations of private burial sites like the Meads-Jackson Cartwright Plot, the John Henry Thomas White Family Cem, and the Benoni Cartwright Family Cem. The presence of the Newbegun Creek Quaker Cem points to the area's early religious heritage. Land use in this corner of Pasquotank County is a mix of small airstrips like Meadstown Airstrip and Fletcher's Airport, alongside the quiet crossroads of Winslow and the prominent landing at Mill Point.
