1968 Map of Pocomoke City

About this map

Pocomoke River serves as the central artery for this Eastern Shore landscape, winding through a patchwork of agricultural fields and dense wetlands including the Cypress Swamp. The city of Pocomoke City is the primary hub, showing a concentrated street grid, a Station along the Conrail line, and a High School. Outlying rural settlements like Cokesbury, Wagram, and Unionville are connected by a network of named country roads, such as Cedar Hall Road and Peach Orchard Road. The mapping reveals a community deeply rooted in its local geography, with numerous small burial grounds and places of worship including Tindlys Chapel Cem and Beaver Dam Ch. Evidence of local industry and river-based transport is visible at Puncheon Landing, where a Conveyor and Water Tank are noted near the riverbanks.
