Abstract:
Although settlers first came to North Carolina during the mid-17th-century, the area near Washington remained vacant until the early 1700s. Close to water, enhanced through the convenience of rivers, and sustained through industry, agriculture, and fisheries, residents of Washington have enjoyed a quiet history on the shores of the Pamlico.
