Map note: The historic overlay is the Crisfield Election District No. 7 plate from the 1877 Lake, Griffing and Stevenson atlas, rectified on MapWarper as map 80283. Rectification aligns a historic map with modern geographic coordinates; small alignment differences are normal because the original atlas survey was not created with modern GPS precision.
