TWIDDY & CO. MINI-DOCUMENTARY SERIES

In celebration of Women’s History Month, we focus on Cora Mae Basnight in this episode of our Icons of the Outer Banks documentary series. Each year in March, Women’s History Month recognizes the contributions of women to present-day society. Cora Mae’s contributions to the Outer Banks, specifically to the town of Manteo on Roanoke Island, deserve recognition. Her story is told by her daughters Della Basnight and Sally Scarborough, as Cora Mae passed away in 1998 at the age of 88.
