Historians say British mapmaker Bartholomew Gosnold first made a map of the island for the rulers of England in 1602.Gosnold named the island to honor his baby daughter,Martha.The Vineyard part of the name came from the many wild grape vines Gosnold found on the island.Later,King Charles of England gave the island to businessman Thomas Mayhew of the Massachusetts Bay Colony,whose son established the first European settlement on the island in 1642.By the middle of the nineteenth century,ships from the American mainland began bringing visitors to the island.Big hotels were built near the edge of the water.Martha's Vineyard was on its way to becoming the visitors' center that it is today.
