2023 Map of Cecilton

About this map

The Delmarva Peninsula landscape captured here is defined by the branching waterways of the Great Bohemia Creek and Little Bohemia Creek, which carve out prominent landforms like Middle Neck and Sassafras Neck. This 2023 survey illustrates a coastal plain geography where colonial-era settlement patterns persist alongside modern thoroughfares. The town of Cecilton anchors the southwest, while the historic enclave of Bohemia Manor sits at the northern boundary between Maryland and Delaware. The map serves as a vital record for genealogists, detailing several significant burial grounds including Cecilton Zion Cem, Warwick Cem, and the Saint Augustine Episcopal Cem near the settlement of Saint Augustine. These sites, along with names like Bohemias Mills, point to the region's long-standing agricultural and milling heritage along the tidal reaches of the Sassafras River.
