1949 Map of Ben Davis Point

About this map

Cohansey River and Back Creek dominate this 1940s landscape, winding through extensive marshlands toward the Delaware Bay. The survey illustrates a coastal environment defined by tidal waterways and narrow necks of land, such as Bacons Neck and Sayres Neck, which supported small landings and isolated settlements. Locations like Sea Breeze and Husted Landing represent the sparse human footprint on this shifting shoreline, where the economy was tied to the water.
