1958 Map of Western St. John

USGS Topo · Published 1964

About this map

Cruz Bay serves as the primary gateway on this 1958 survey, showing the administrative and social hub of the island near Government House. Much of the interior landscape is dedicated to the Virgin Islands National Park, while the remnants of the island's agrarian past are visible in the scattered estate names and ruins. Along the eastern shores, the settlement at Emmaus and the historic site of Fortsberg overlook the expansive waters of Coral Bay. The map provides a clear view of the island's mid-century infrastructure, including the winding Center Line Road and coastal paths connecting Caneel Bay Plantation to the southern bays. Topographic details highlight the transition from the high peaks of Bordeaux Mtn and Mamey Peak down to the complex shoreline of Reef Bay and Lameshur Bay. For genealogists, the map preserves the locations of local landmarks like the Horace Mann Sch and Johns Polly Sch.
