About this map

Mathews serves as the central hub of this coastal Virginia landscape, where the peninsula’s intricate network of creeks and necks defines local life in the late 1940s. The map illustrates a maritime economy anchored by numerous landing points like Callis Wharf, Hicks Wharf, and Williams Wharf, which facilitated trade and travel across Milford Haven and the Chesapeake Bay.
