Indigenous Life on the Nansemond River
Throughout my research journey, maps have always been my favorite information source. I have collected more maps than I can count to develop this website, and I have created simple maps as visual references for some of my stories. Over the past year, I have finally shifted from that approach to using ArcGIS StoryMaps, and the possibilities now seem endless. I invite you to read my first StoryMap focused on indigenous life on the Nansemond River and to reach out with other StoryMaps you may like to see on this site.

I’ve recently learned that Arthur Bass (1733-?) is probably my 6th great-grandfather. His wife, Agnes Morris (1720-1759) would be my 6th great-grandmother. My own grandmother, Selma Agnes Watson, was born Baltimore in 1920, and we have strong family history on the Chesapeake. I’m very interested to confirm/refute my information, and to learn more.
