The Annamessex people were a historic Native American tribe from the Eastern Shore of Maryland.[1] Their homelands were part of present-day Somerset County, Maryland.[1]
Along with the Manokin, Nasswatox, and Aquintica, the Annamessex were a subtribe of the Pocomoke people,[2] like the Manokin to their immediate north and the Morumsco at their immediate south. The Nanticoke and Choptank lived north of the Pocomoke, while the Accomac people lived further south in Virginia.[1]
