1948 Map of Mathews
USGS Topo · Published 1948About this map
Mathews serves as the focal point of this coastal Virginia peninsula, surrounded by an intricate network of waterways including the Piankitank River, Hills Bay, and the open Chesapeake Bay. In the mid-1940s, the landscape is defined by its maritime orientation, where family-named landmarks like Hicks Wharf and Williams Wharf line the edges of Stutts Creek and Put in Creek. The interior reflects a tightly knit community structure supported by numerous local institutions, including Central High Sch, Lee-Jackson Sch, and the Fair Grounds.
