About this map

Chestertown serves as a focal point along the Chester River in this mid-century survey of the Maryland Eastern Shore. The map illustrates a landscape defined by its deep relationship with the water, where numerous peninsulas or "necks" like Quaker Neck and Spaniard Neck extend into the river's reaches. The infrastructure of the era is evident in the Pennsylvania railroad line connecting Centerville to the broader region, while local commerce and community life are marked by sites such as Centerville Landing and the County Farm.
