2022 Map of Chincoteague East

About this map

Chincoteague island and the surrounding salt marshes of the Virginia coast are preserved here in high detail, showing the complex boundary between the town and the Chincoteague National Wildlife Refuge. The landscape is defined by its maritime heritage and genealogy, with numerous small family and community burial grounds like Birch Family Cem, Daisey Memorial Cem, and the Whealton-Clayville Cem dotting the residential areas. To the east, the Assateague Island National Seashore buffers the Atlantic Ocean, separated from the mainland settlements of Birch Town and Deep Hole by the Assateague Channel. This map captures a modern view of a region defined by its dynamic waterways, from the expansive Toms Cove to the intricate networks of Coards Marshes and Wildcat Marsh.
