1954 Map of Eastern St. Thomas

About this map

Mandal and the northern coastline of St. Thomas define the upper reaches of this mid-century survey, where the island's steep topography transitions into the Atlantic Ocean. The landscape is dotted with several small settlements such as Frydendal, Tutu, and Nazareth, which are connected by a developing road network through the hills. Of particular interest is the prominent Turpentine Run valley, which serves as a central drainage and transit corridor leading south toward the intricate coastline of Mangrove Lagoon.
