NOTE: Construction dates for Elizabeth City resources are derived by a variety of methods. Those dates with a single year, such as 1840 or ca. 1895, were determined by deed research or individual resource histories. Other date were arrived at by consulting Sanborn maps, which exist for Elizabeth City for the years 1885, 1891, 1896, 1902, 1908, i923, and 1936. A resource that is shown by the first Sanborn map to cover its block is indicated by the note "by" and the appropriate map year. A resource which is not shown by one edition, but is shown by the next edition, is indicated by an extended date, such as 1908-1914, covering both editions. City directories for Elizabeth City do not survive for years earlier than 1936, and therefore are of help in dating houses only after 1931, the date of the last Sanborn Map. Other property dates, particularly those noted with a decade notation such as "1920s" or "1940s," are derived at by the appearance of the resource.
