1942 Map of Tingles Island

USGS Topo · Published 1962

About this map

Assateague Island stands as a long, narrow barrier between the Atlantic Ocean and a complex network of coastal bays during this 1942 survey. The landscape is defined by its fluid geography, where Chincoteague Bay, Sinepuxent Bay, and Newport Bay converge around a series of low-lying points and islands. This era shows the coastline before the significant modern developments of the mid-20th century, focused instead on the maritime utility of the area.
