1968 Map of Townsend

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

The tip of the Delmarva Peninsula reveals a landscape defined by maritime activity and military presence in the late 1960s. Kiptopeke and the Cape Charles Air Force Sta anchor the southern reaches, where the Penn Central railroad terminates near the Tollgate for the cross-bay route. The interior is dotted with small coastal settlements like Townsend, Capeville, and Cheapside, connected by a network of roads and the rail line serving Latimer Siding.
