One ferry that linked the towns of Edenton and Mackeys, North Carolina, continued in service from 1734 to 1938, when a bridge was built across the Sound. Another, longer bridge of more than 3 miles (4.8 km) in length was built in 1990. Fishing was a major industry in the Albemarle Sound from the colonial period.
