The map was created by the U.S. Coast Survey in 1862. It’s a drawing of “the coast from Hampton, Virginia, to Old Cedar Inlet, North Carolina, showing roads, railroads, rivers and streams, and place names.” The two-sheet map is at the Library of Congress.

This blog has published two other maps of North Carolina:
— 1860 Map of North Carolina, Slave Population by County (April 1, 2019)
— The North Carolina Maps Project (May 18, 2020)
1st U.S. Colored Cavalry 
For me it is too bad that the land west of the Chowan River is blank.
