The estimated date of this copy based on the mention, in article #27, of the reconsecration of St. Paul's Church (1959), and the note on the map stating that mileage "subject to change upon completion of Chesapeake Bay Tunnel" (which was finished in 1964). Contains descriptions of 43 historical sites in this North Carolina town on the Albemarle Sound, including homes, inns, public buildings, and churches.
