Tangier Summary

History

Tangier is a small island located in the Chesapeake Bay off the coast of Virginia. It is part of Accomack County and is the only inhabited island in the Chesapeake Bay. The island has a long and rich history, dating back to the 1600s when it was first settled by English colonists. The island was originally known as Hog Island, but was later renamed Tangier in honor of the Tangier Islands in the Mediterranean Sea.
The island was first settled by English colonists in 1686, and the first permanent settlement was established in 1778. The island was used primarily for fishing and farming, and the population grew steadily over the years. In the late 1800s, the island became a popular tourist destination, and many of the island’s buildings were built during this time.
In the early 1900s, the island’s population began to decline as the fishing industry declined and the island’s economy shifted to tourism.
