Passing through Ocracoke

By Tom Carmine

I hardly remember my first trip to Ocracoke, but a few things stuck in my mind. It was in the heat summer before they built the Bonner Bridge across Oregon Inlet and before our car had air conditioning. Seagulls followed the ferries because they had learned that people would toss bread to them off the stern. It was exciting to see them fight each other in air for someone’s half eaten sandwich bread.

The drive from the ferry landing into the village seemed like a long drive across the desert. I just remember seeing hot sand and no trees. Of course the reason it probably seemed so long was because there wasn’t really a road then. I believe we had to drive across Marston mats, which were perforated sheets of steel that were developed during World War II to construct temporary airfields.

Interestingly, the mats were first produced in Marston, North Carolina for Camp Mackall, which was near Fort Bragg.

When we finally arrived in the village there were no rooms in the few motels so we had to hurry to the ferry to catch the last ferry back to Hatteras Island. Our day ended in a motel in Buxton where I remember the full moon shined orange through the open screened window as it rose over the ocean. It had been a long day. continues ...

My more recent trip to Ocracoke was a Friday in early October, a beautiful cool day that began on the 7:00 AM Swan Quarter ferry. You could tell the high season was over.

There were only six cars and the ABC truck making the weekend liquor delivery. Three of the cars sported Virginia license plates. One couple and their bloodhound had driven all night from Abington. In the other car were two college students from Blacksburg. For both couples the two and halfhour ride was a chance to nap rather than sightsee.

This ferry ride from Swan Quarter was far more pleasant than my one and only trip in

the early 2000’s when we were right in the middle of a spring Nor’easter. The wind on that day was so strong that you could hardly push your door open as the wind blew through the ferry and down between the cars.

Our destination that morning was Hatteras and we basically sped through Ocracoke for the Hatteras Ferry because of the rain.

This morning the sky was clear and the Sound smooth. The Silver Lake ferry is a very comfortable ferry. We enjoyed spending time at one of the tables in the spacious passenger galley, and we got to see both the sunrise and the sunset.

Several members of the crew

and the captain stopped by and chatted briefly about life on the ferry. I didn’t realize that they didn’t all live and work from Swan Quarter or Ocracoke.

Instead they spend half of their time away from home as they work a week, and then they are off a week. The weeks they work, they stay in a rented house on Highway 264.

At the end of their week, the crew is responsible for cleaning the ship and cleaning the house before the next crew arrives.

That is one of those little things you never think about, but obviously somebody has to clean the bathrooms and take the trash off the ship each day. continues ...

Passing through Ocracoke

By Tom Carmine

We had a simple goal for our day: shop and eat. It was wonderful not to see a Wings store any where in sight.

I was impressed with the high quality of the arts and crafts found in the shops that we visited and the friendliness of the shopkeepers. Some told us of their multiple jobs that they held that helped them support their beach habit. I also noted that no one seemed to be from Ocracoke. Everyone one seemed to have migrated there for his or her own reason.

I guess there is an allure to Ocracoke that is similar to Key West that makes some people just want to give up the hustle and bustle of city life for the less hectic life at the beach. Thankfully it hasn’t become as crowed and as tacky as our most Southern point in the US. Even though it was recognized as the number one beach by in 2007 by Dr. Beach, Ocracoke has not lost its quaint character.

I spent some time visiting friends on the Hawaiian Islands.

There the non-natives talk about island fever. Granted they were a few thousand miles from the continent, but it did take an hour to drive across Oahu. Ocracoke village is smaller than the community that I live in. I cannot imagine spending my entire life living on such as small island, but Carl Goerch in his 1956 book Ocracoke writes that Mrs. Eliza Ella O’Neal lived to age 65 and had never left the island except to go fishing.

Goerch was a frequent visitor to Ocracoke and the first publisher of what has become Our State magazine. continues ...

Ocracoke is a collection of stories and essays gathered over many years. One of his essays Land of Romance is a lighthearted but somewhat unflattering attempt to identify Ocracoke as the best place to go for a woman looking to get married. His premise was that after a long day of sport fishing or hunting a man would find any woman to be extremely attractive. All the woman had to do was sit on the hotel porch and engage in friendly conversation for the magic to work. If you want to read more, the 1995 12th printing of Ocracoke is actually available to read online for free at books.google.com.

Hunger soon sent us into The Flying Melon for an early lunch.

Its charming cottage exterior and homey interior was a great setting for the wonderful menu. That was followed by two separate

visits to Ocracoke Coffee in between which I think we visited all the art local artist galleries before returning to the ferry.

Every photographer that goes to Ocracoke has to photograph the lighthouse. Sadly the Park Service decided that it needed to build a walkway with rails along side the historical fence approach to the lighthouse to make it more accessible to tourists. Now you can no longer

take some of those beautiful lighthouse shots that have seen on postcards and in galleries.

A day doesn’t a vacation make, but it did inspire us to go back again soon. We still want to eat at the Back Porch Restaurant and sit on the beach at sunset. I just learned about the Ocrafolk School which is sponsored by the Ocracoke Preservation Society.

This year’s classes include cooking, photography, island history and other crafts. It sounds like a nice reason to spend a week at the beach.

Lady of the Quarter Ms. Margie Brooks Photo by Ingrid Lemme

A native of El Paso, Texas, Margie lived in Anthony, NM and graduated from Gadsden High School. She married a Hyde County, NC native in 1964. Her husband Larry served in the U. S. Army and after twenty years, he retired and they returned to Hyde County. A typical military family, their daughter Brenda was born in Columbus, GA while they were stationed at Fort Benning. Other assignments included Fort Eustis, VA, and Fort Rucker, AL. They were also assigned to the Naval Air Station, Corpus Christi, TX where Margie remained while Larry served two tours in Viet Nam. A three-year tour in Bad Kreuznach, West Germany provided them with an opportunity for travel in Europe in the 1970s.

After moving back to NC, Margie commuted to Langley AFB, VA for five years and came home to Swan Quarter on the weekends. Tiring of the long commute, she then took a job in Greenville, NC at Yale Material Handling (now NACCO) and spent another five years on the road! In 1994, she resigned that position so that November Issue 2010

she could spend more time with her mother who was in the nursing home in Swan Quarter, but her mother passed away less than two weeks later.

Margie quickly got involved in her community and for several years served as the Greater Hyde County Chamber of Commerce’s Tourism Director as a volunteer.

She was the Chamber’s Executive Director from October 2000 to October 2007. She also served as the Executive Director for the Historic Albemarle Tour from 1999 through 2004. In October 2000, she was appointed by the Hyde County Board of Commissioners to the newly formed Swan Quarter Sanitary District, where she served as Secretary/Treasurer.

A long-time Board member of the Hyde County Community Development Corp., Margie is still very involved in community and economic development in Hyde County. She maintains the www.hydecounty.org website.

HOW I WENT FROM SCRANTON, PA TO SCRANTON, NC

BY CRYSTAL LEVIS SWINDELL When you are a transplant to eastern North Carolina, you get accustomed to the question, “What brought you here?”

Well, for me, it is the irony of the answer that makes it interesting. I currently live in the Sladesville area of Scranton, North Carolina, but I moved here from Scranton, Pennsylvania.

A strange coincidence, I know.

So what brought me here?

In June 2001, I was a recent graduate of The University of Scranton- (the one in PA), where I majored in secondary education, with a November Issue 2010

concentration in biology and chemistry. To jump-start my career, I began my job search and decided to send several resumes to school districts from Tampa, FL to Brooklyn, NY. In this batch of resumes, I applied for a teaching position at Columbia High School, in Tyrell County. Shortly after faxing my resume, I was invited to Columbia to interview for a high school science teaching

position. I decided to head south for an interview. I had never heard of the Outer Banks, never mind Columbia, NC, but packed up my car and navigated my way to the interview. During my journey, I realized that this area (which I

www.SwanQuarterly.net

originally pronounced as TY’Rel- in true Yankee fashion) was quite rural - more rural than I had ever experienced.

However, the coastal location sold me. I interviewed, accepted my first teaching job, and moved into a rental house on a potato farm in Gum Neck in less than three weeks.

Although this was a drastic change from city girl to country girl, it was step one in my journey from Scranton, PA to Scranton, NC.

Toward the end of my first year of teaching, I traveled to Nags Head for dinner with some friends.

During our meal, I noticed a nice looking man seated at a nearby table and pointed him out to a friend of mine. I did not plan on approaching him or introducing myself, but after a trip to the restroom I inadvertently brought back a banner of toilet tissue on the sole of my shoe. continues...

He found this amusing, and visited my table to tell me about my hitchhiking paper product. We struck up a conversation, which lead to each of us stating that we were from Scranton. He was from the Hyde County one in North Carolina and I was from the

husband, Cameron, and I have a beautiful three year old daughter, Margaret (Maggie) Ann, who is quite the country girl. She may not know what snow or a taxi cab looks like, but she can tell you about cotton fields and tractors.

I HAVE TRADED TRAFFIC FOR TRACTORS.

November Issue 2010

Since the birth of my daughter, my teaching career has changed gears and shifted from full-time to part-time.

www.SwanQuarterly.net

I still enjoy teaching high school science two days per week at Pungo Christian Academy in Belhaven, NC. On the other five days of the week, I can usually be found at home with my family, tending to our goats, Elmo and Grover, and enjoying the beautiful outdoors in my current address in Scranton, NC. The irony of my travel from Scranton to Scranton still gets smiles as I answer the question, â&#x20AC;&#x153;So, what brought you here?â&#x20AC;?

Regardless of the paradox of my story, I am happy to have made my home in the southernmost of my Scrantons.

THANKSGIVING IN SWAN QUARTER (1930’S -1950’S) During Thanksgiving in Hyde County, a lot of emphasis was put on the thoughts of just that, thanksgiving.

It was known that most people who hunted were in the woods during this time. Geese were mainly the target and part of the main meal.

Days before Thanksgiving, there were no big plans at my house, but there was the pleasure of feeling that the community was together. In fact, just knowing that the day was approaching and everybody would have a goose on their table was exciting. For those who did not hunt, most of the time someone who had a goose would give them one for their Thanksgiving Day dinner.

Mother's brother, William, would always bring her a goose to cook on Thanksgiving. She would boil water and dip the bird in it, then pick the feathers off, then clean it and boil it again in a big pot. I think mother used a pressure cooker. Goose was tough meat, so a pressure cooker was the only thing that would make it November Issue 2010

tender. We then had the usual accompanying dishes; cornbread dressing, gravy, rice, and whatever else we already had on hand, collards from the garden, peas, and baked corn bread.

All families did not travel to get together on that day; some could not afford the travel expenses, so usually it was usually just the immediate family.

Everybody picked pecans off the ground. They fell easily to the ground because someone always climbed the tree and shook it.

I am sure of one thing; every family was cooking a big meal that day. Each family was thankful for their blessings, and they shared each with the other.

Children played together, figured out their own games to play without the adults having to entertain them, and they heard prayers at the table. Also, when school was back in session, children heard a school prayer, so they knew in their growing-up years what thanksgiving was, and would mean in the future.

Also, a number of people thought it was a great day to go to the barn during the day to "take a little nip", just to get them prepared for the upcoming festivities. We children knew where they were going! LOL!

www.SwanQuarterly.net

In my memories of Thanksgiving in Swan Quarter, I sensed a feeling of sameness in this small fishing village community. This made me feel comforted and secure. Times were simple, but we were very thankful for everything God had given us, and looked forward to our approaching day and sharing it with our families and friends.

My grandparents, Bruce Smithwick and Jessie Harris Smithwick, were good citizens of Hyde County. They loved people and were loved. They gave of themselves to others, and this was returned to them in many ways of kindness and love from others just like them in the county. So one can envision what living in Hyde County was like. There is nothing that compares to living where one can throw up their hand to greet someone anytime and just say "hello", and get the same greeting back. It was almost like Thanksgiving the entire year.

Written by Denise Tyson Miller (with help from her mom Audrey Smithwick Tyson) ( Audrey and her late husband John Tyson, have 3 children, Denise Tyson Miller and John Sherrod Tyson, both who live in Atlanta, GA. And Lynette Tyson Dinneen, who lives in Atlantic Beach , Fla. There are also 3 grandchildren, Robert, Brianna and Wyatt. ) Audrey grew up in Swan Quarter with her four siblings, Eloise, Hilda, Sherwood and Danny. Their parents were Bruce and Jesse Harris Smithwick.
