About this map

The southern tip of the Delmarva Peninsula is captured in this survey, showcasing the maritime and military landscape of Northampton County. This coastal stretch along the Chesapeake Bay features a complex network of small settlements and transportation hubs, including the rail-linked Latimer Siding and the agricultural center of Townsend. The presence of the Cape Charles Air Force Sta and the U.S. Naval Communications Sta underscores the strategic importance of this landform during the Cold War era.
