About this map

Nantucket island life in the early 1940s is defined here by its intricate relationship with the water, from the harbor jetties to the inland kettle ponds and marshes. The town core shows a dense street grid featuring the Cyrus Pierce Sch and several burial grounds, including the Old North Cem and Old South Cem. Moving west, the landscape opens into grazing lands like Ram Pasture and isolated settlements such as Maddaket and Warren Landing.
