1965 Map of Chuckatuck

About this map

Chuckatuck and the surrounding Tidewater landscape define this 1965 survey, documenting the transition between rural agriculture and growing infrastructure in the Isle of Wight and Suffolk borderlands. The winding Nansemond River dominates the center of the sheet, flanked by historic riverfront points like Glebe Point and Abraham Point. Inland, the map captures a network of small settlements including Elephant Fork, Gloversville, and Driver, alongside significant institutional landmarks such as the U S Naval Transmitter Station and Obici Memorial Hospital.
