1942 Map of Chesconessex

USGS Topo · Published 1962

About this map

Chesconessex and its surrounding marshlands are documented here as they appeared during the early 1940s, based on Army Map Service surveys. Located where the Chesapeake Bay meets Pocomoke Sound, the landscape is a complex network of tidal guts and islands, including Savage Island and Russell Island. The settlement pattern is concentrated near the mainland's edge, anchored by local landmarks like Leatherbury Church and the protected waters of Chesconessex Creek.
