1943 Map of Exmore
USGS Topo · Published 1962About this map
The boundary between Accomack Co and Northampton Co bisects this landscape of the Virginia Eastern Shore, where agricultural life centers around the Pennsylvania railroad corridor. The commercial hub of Exmore and the neighboring Belle Haven serve as the primary inland anchors, while the economy of the era is clearly tied to the water via maritime infrastructure like Willis Wharf, Miles Wharf, and Rue Wharf. The pattern of settlement shows a dense network of small communities such as Painter, Keller, and Savage Town, each connected by a web of dirt roads and the rail line.
