Fig. 13 - Segment of Percy Map between the Albemarle and Pamlico Sound
The overlay established that two water bodies in the segment are meant to represent the
Albemarle Sound/Roanoke River and the Pamlico Sound/Tar River. The marks on the land
between them are marks unlike any on the rest of the map. It is proposed by the authors that the
two black dots seen above, when compared with the John White map, represent Pomeyooc and
Tramanskecooc, and thusly can be none other than Pananiock on the Zuniga map. The line to
one of the dots represents the path or waterway from the Pamlico to the villages. The Percy map
alone provides little evidence of the location of the men John Smith’s expedition searched for.
However, when viewed as one more piece of evidence (in conjunction with the
Farrar/White/Zuniga maps and other evidence from Jamestown) that the Jamestown expedition
found that there were colonists at Pomeyooc and Tramansquecooc, it becomes very persuasive.
