About this map

North Beach L.S.S., Green Run Inlet L.S.S., and Pope Island L.S.S. stand as critical outposts along the Atlantic coast, marking the Life-Saving Station infrastructure vital to early maritime safety. This 1901 survey reveals a landscape of barrier islands and expansive coastal waters at the border of Maryland and Virginia, defined by the barrier beach separating the Atlantic Ocean from the interconnected waters of Sinepuxent Bay, Chincoteague Bay, and Newport Bay.

The presence of Scotts Landing suggests the era's reliance on small-scale maritime commerce and transport within the sheltered sounds. Interior landmarks like Winter Quarter and family-named points such as Handys Hammock and Whittington Point offer glimpses into the localized occupation of the wetlands and marshes long before modern development altered the coastline. The map preserves the original configuration of inlets and shoals, including the now-shifted Lumber Marsh and Great Egging Beach.
