1968 Map of St. Clements Island

USGS Topo · Published 1983

About this map

The Potomac River defines the state boundary between Maryland and Virginia in this mid-century coastal survey. On the Maryland side, the prominent landmass of Newtown Neck separates St Clements Bay and Breton Bay, while the landmark St Clements Island sits offshore near Coltons Point, marked by the commemorative Stone Cross. This perspective provides an detailed view of the shoreline and bathymetric depths of the river before modern development intensified. Across the water in Virginia, the landscape of Machodoc Neck is segmented by tidal inlets such as Nomini Bay and Lower Machodoc Creek. The map documents established waterfront communities including Breton Beach, Glebe Harbor, and Coles Point, the latter featuring the Coles Point Cem.
