About Sneads Ferry

Sneads Ferry is a small town near the beach in NC. The wiki on the town says this:

“Sneads Ferry is a census-designated place (CDP) in Onslow County, North Carolina. It is part of the Jacksonville, North Carolina Metropolitan Statistical Area. In 2003, the estimated population was 2,248. …

In 1728, Edmund Ennett established a ferry at the site of what is today known as Sneads Ferry. It became a key element in the Post road linking Suffolk, Virginia with Charleston, South Carolina. By 1759, two ferries operated there, one from each bank of New River. Robert Snead was the proprietor of the ferry on the north shore so the community that developed on the banks of the crossing site became known as “Sneads Ferry.” Caroline Pearson propelled the ferry until it was replaced with a bridge in 1939. The village is heavily dependent on the seafood industry. The village annually catches over 385 tons of shrimp, 25 tons of flounder, and approximately 493 tons of other seafood like clams, scallops, oysters, mullet, spot, grouper, soft shell and hard shell crabs, sea bass, and more. The town holds an annual Shrimp Festival to honor the local seafood industry.”
