1968 Map of Pungoteague

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

The coastal landscape of Accomack County is defined by a dense network of tidal inlets and peninsulas, locally referred to as necks. Sluitkill Neck, Yeo Neck, and Hacks Neck dominate the central topography, separated by the winding reaches of Pungoteague Creek and Nandua Creek. These waterways were central to the region's economy and social structure, evidenced by several landings and wharves such as Finneys Wharf and Cashville. Inland, the settlement pattern centers on small crossroads communities and family-named hamlets like Crockett Town and Mount Nebo.
