Abstract:
Durant's Neck is a peninsula that extends into the Albemarle Sound between the Perquimans and Little rivers. George Durant, a pioneer settler, bought the lower six miles from the king of the Yeopim, a tribe of Native Americans. Purchased in 1662, it is the first piece of land for which a deed was recorded in the state. The deed is in the Hertford County Courthouse.
