1954 Map of Centreville
USGS Topo · Published 1976About this map
Centreville serves as the focal point of this Eastern Shore survey, situated at the head of the Corsica River where navigation meets the interior farmlands. The landscape is defined by the deep indentations of the Chester River and its numerous coves, including Mummys Cove and White Cove. Inland, the map documents a transition from water-based commerce at sites like Centreville Landing and Ashland Ldg to a rail-and-road network. Educational and spiritual life is well-marked through the Kennard Sch, High Sch, and rural congregations at Salem Ch and Mt Zion Ch. An Old Railroad Grade and the Penn Central tracks trace the historical path of the local economy, while the presence of a Drive-in Theater near Starkey Corner reflects mid-century social shifts in Queen Anne's County.
