Abstract:

Charles R. McNeill established the North Carolina Maritime Museum in 1975. The museum's humble beginnings started in a row of store fronts known then as the Hampton Marine Museum. In this manifestation, the museum remained in Beaufort storefronts until 1984 when the state's General Assembly bestowed a new title, the North Carolina Maritime Museum, and plans were drawn up for the current museum building.
