2019 Map of East of Deltaville

About this map

Administrative boundaries intersect over open water in this maritime-focused survey of the Chesapeake Bay region. The map defines the convergence of several Virginia jurisdictions, charting the aquatic borders of Lancaster Co Middlesex Co and the southern reach of Accomack Co. While terrestrial features are absent, the map serves as a precise geographic record of how local county lines, including those of Middlesex Co Mathews Co, are projected across the bay's surface. These invisible lines are vital for understanding jurisdictional limits for fishing, navigation, and regional maritime history. The meeting points of Accomack Co Northampton Co and Mathews Co Northampton Co provide a rare look at the exact coordinates where the Eastern Shore and Middle Peninsula political boundaries align in the open sea.
