1965 Map of Hog Island

USGS Topo · Published 1966

About this map

Hog Island and the broad reach of the James River dominate this mid-century survey, illustrating the intersection of colonial history and Cold War-era defense. Along the northern shore, the Kingsmill area and the Carters Grove Historical Home sit near the developing corridors of the Chesapeake and Ohio railroad and the Colonial National Historical Parkway. On the southern bank, the landscape transition is marked by the Hog Island State Waterfowl Refuge and the agricultural expanses of Gravel Neck, where tidal flats like Cobham Bay meet the mouth of Chippokes Creek.
