1944 Map of Tisbury Great Pond

USGS Topo · Published 1944

About this map

The south shore of Marthas Vineyard in the mid-1940s is defined by a rhythmic sequence of coastal ponds and finger-like coves. The boundary between the towns of Chilmark, West Tisbury, and Edgartown is traced across a landscape dominated by water and low-lying peninsulas. Tisbury Great Pond sits at the center of this network, fed by numerous branches including Tississa and Deep Bottom Cove. This survey, produced by the Department of Public Works and J.W.V. Somers, captures the area's rural character before extensive modern development.
