1942 Map of Nanticoke
USGS Topo · Published 1962About this map
Nanticoke River defines the landscape of this 1942 survey, acting as a broad aquatic boundary between Dorchester and Wicomico counties. On the eastern shore, the fishing and maritime villages of Nanticoke, Bivalve, and Jesterville are connected by a road network that terminates at the Nanticoke Wharf near Roaring Point. This area reflects the mid-century Chesapeake Bay economy, where small waterfront settlements relied heavily on the surrounding estuaries like Ellis Bay and Wetipquin Creek.
