About this map

Zekiah Swamp Run and Mattawoman Creek define the low-lying drainage patterns of this southern Maryland landscape, where the borders of Prince George'S Co and Charles Co meet. The area is characterized by a high density of small rural communities and family-associated landmarks, including North Keys, Horsehead, and Ashbox. Genealogists will find a significant concentration of burial sites, ranging from large installations like the Maryland Veterans Cem to smaller parish and family plots such as Boones Catholic Chapel Cem and the Connick Family Cem.

Transportation corridors including Cherry Tree Crossing Rd and Old Indian Head Rd link the northern settlements of Cheltenham and Marlton with the expanding residential outskirts of Waldorf. The map provides a detailed view of the transition from wooded wetlands and swamps to the more developed neighborhoods of Pinefield and Rosaryville, tracing the contemporary infrastructure of this suburban-rural corridor.
