About this map

Hampton and its surrounding coastal communities are defined by a complex network of tidal waterways and historic family settlements in this 2021 study. The landscape transitions from the sandy stretches of Seabrook Beach and Hampton Beach to the intricate marshes of Hampton Flats and Line Swamp. Local genealogy is deeply etched into the terrain through numerous small burial grounds such as the Marden Family Cem, Dalton Cem, and Philbrick Family Cem.

Maritime features and rocky outcrops like Great Boars Head and Bound Rock emphasize the Atlantic's influence on the region's geography. To the west, the map details the infrastructure of Seabrook Station and the aviation hub at Hampton Airfield, while naming traditional crossroads like Cemetery Corners and The Five Corners. The intricate drainage of the Taylor River and Tide Mill Creek illustrates the historic reliance on these waters for local industry, evidenced by landmarks like Coffins Mill.
