About this map

Pungoteague Creek and its many meandering branches dominate this 1943 coastal survey, revealing the intricate water-based geography of Virginia’s Eastern Shore during the mid-century. The landscape is defined by a series of prominent peninsulas or necks, including Pungoteague Neck, Hacks Neck, and Finneys Neck, where small agricultural and fishing communities like Harborton and Hacksneck are situated. The map documents vital maritime infrastructure of the era, such as Evans Wharf and Finneys Wharf, alongside inland landmarks like Dinglers Mill and St George Ch.
