1968 Map of Wachapreague

About this map

Wachapreague serves as the focal point of this coastal survey, where the terrestrial landscape of Virginia's Eastern Shore gives way to a complex network of tidal channels and barrier islands. Inland, the map details established farming communities and family-named locales such as Locust Mount, Grangeville, and Old Trower. These settlements are linked by a grid of rural roads and dotted with historical landmarks including Herbert Ch and several unnamed cemeteries, alongside the larger Wachapreague Cem.
