1949 Map of Bombay Hook
USGS Topo · Published 1949About this map
Woodland Beach and the coastal marshes of the Bombay Hook National Wildlife Refuge define this 1940s landscape along the Delaware Bay. The intricate network of tidal waterways, including Duck Creek, Mikes Ditch, and Dutch Neck Canal, illustrates a complex amphibious environment where land and water shift with the tides. Navigation aids like the Ship John Shoal Lt and the presence of piers in ruins near the shoreline indicate the area's maritime history and the constant battle against erosion and silting.
