1903 Map of Bloodsworth Island

About this map

Bloodsworth Island No. 10 and its surrounding archipelago define this maritime landscape at the turn of the century, where the marshy fringes of the Chesapeake Bay meet the open waters of Tangier Sound. The map documents a fragile coastal environment long before modern erosion and rising tides significantly altered these landforms. Small fishing and crabbing outposts like Applegarth and Crocheron represent the isolated watermen communities of the era.
