1968 Map of Tangier Island

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

Tangier Island and its surrounding archipelago dominate this mid-century hydrographic and topographic study of the Chesapeake Bay. The map details the delicate relationship between the small community at Tangier and the encroaching waters of the Tangier Sound and Pocomoke Sound. Settlement patterns are concentrated along the north-south elevations of West Ridge, Main Ridge, and Canton Ridge, where numerous Cemeteries and a Silo are documented.
