Abstract:

A number of small villages on the outer banks were present during the 19th century including Rice Path, Yellow Hill, Bell Cove, and Bill’s Point. These communities—named for landscape features, community members, and historic events—lived an isolated existence. Their subsistence relied on local resources and many livelihoods revolved around fishing and agriculture.
