1965 Map of Chincoteague East

USGS Topo · Published 1981

About this map

Chincoteague and the nearby settlement of Birch Town dominate the landscape of Chincoteague Island in this mid-1960s survey, showing a community defined by its maritime surroundings and conservation boundaries. The map detail highlights the established religious and civic life of the area, featuring the Christ Sanctified Holy Ch, Chincoteague High Sch, and several community burial grounds including Redman Cem and Mechanics Cem. To the east, across the Assateague Channel, the expanse of the Chincoteague National Wildlife Refuge and Assateague Island National Seashore is marked by tidal flats, marshlands, and a Jeep Trail along the coast. The presence of the Assateague Beach U S Coast Guard Station and a Lookout Tower near Fishing Point reflects the critical importance of coastal monitoring at this southern end of the barrier island system.
