1943 Map of Chincoteague West

USGS Topo · Published 1943

About this map

Chincoteague and the intricate coastal landscape of Accomack County appear here in a 1943 study by the War Department and U.S. Coast and Geodetic Survey. The map captures a moment when the coastal marshes and necks were dotted with small communities and country chapels, including Signpost Church, Dees Chapel, and Tabernacle Church. This era predates the intensive modern development of the coastline, showing the original settlement patterns around Horntown and the waterfront at Horntown Landing.
