1944 Map of Denton
USGS Topo · Published 1961About this map
The Choptank River defines the geography of central Caroline County, winding south past Greensboro and West Denton toward the town of Denton. This mid-century survey reveals a landscape where the river was still a primary focus of activity, marked by numerous historical points of access like Brick Wall Landing, Passape Landing, and Smith Landing. While the Baltimore and Eastern railroad corridor and the Pennsylvania line provided terrestrial connections, the presence of Sewell Mills and Garey Mill Pond suggests a local economy still tied to the area's many waterways, including Forge Branch and Watts Creek.
