About this map

Salt marshes and tidal channels dominate the coastline of Essex County in this mid-century survey. The town of Ipswich serves as the inland anchor, where the Ipswich River winds toward the sea past landmarks like Heartbreak Hill and Treadwell Island. The map meticulously details the complex hydrology of the region, from the Rowley River in the north to the Essex River in the south, illustrating the numerous islands such as Hog Island and Choate Island that characterize these estuaries.
