The Delmar border community straddles the line between Delaware and Maryland, serving as a central hub for the northern reaches of the Delmarva Peninsula. This 2016 survey details the transition from the concentrated residential streets of Salisbury in the south, including the Westlake and Manokin neighborhoods, to the agricultural lands of Saint George and Smith Hill further north. The landscape is defined by the headwaters of the North Prong Wicomico River and its numerous tributaries like Connelly Mill Br and Leonard Pond Run. Genealogists will find significant value in the documentation of local burial sites, including Saint Stephens Cem and Oliphant Cem near the state line. Aviation history is also represented through the presence of both Ennis Aerodrome and Bennett Airport, marking the area's ongoing importance to regional transport and commerce.
