About this map

Bainbridge Island and the intricate coastline of the Great Peninsula define this maritime landscape, where the waters of Rich Passage and Port Orchard connect various waterfront communities. On the southern shore of Eagle Harbor, the map documents the Minidoka National Historic Site at Eagledale, a location of significant historical weight. The industrial and maritime legacy of the region is evident in settlements like Creosote and Port Blakely, once major hubs of timber and milling activity.

Further south, the map details the residential and naval character of the mainland, including Bremerton, Manchester, and the veterans' facilities at Retsil. Transportation and geography are inextricably linked here, with ferry routes traversing the sounds and numerous points like Point White and Orchard Point marking the navigation channels. For genealogists, the inclusion of the Port Blakely Cem, Veterans Home Cem, and Sedgwick Cem provides essential spatial data for local family histories.
