1968 Map of Quinby Inlet

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

Hog Island dominates this coastal survey, where the small settlement of Broadwater sits as a lonely outpost on the Atlantic shore. This map records the shifting sands and tidal complexity of the Virginia Barrier Islands during the late 1960s, with updates into the 1980s. A local Cem and a Lookout Tower near the village provide specific points of interest for genealogists and maritime historians. The intricate network of tidal flats and winding channels, including Hodges Narrows and Upper Landing Cr, highlights the isolation of this environment. To the north, the expanse of Chimney Pole Marsh and the open Quinby Inlet demonstrate the fluid nature of the Accomack and Northampton county line, which threads through these salt marshes and inlets.
