About this map

Dividing Creek defines the local landscape, winding through a network of small Maryland settlements and family-named homesteads. The area is marked by a high density of burial grounds, including Nazareth Cemetery and Olivet Cemetery, suggesting a deeply rooted rural community in the early 21st century. The terrain remains largely undeveloped, characterized by low-lying wetlands around Pusey Branch and the prominent Blueberry Hill.

Infrastructure is dominated by local roads such as Honeywell Rd and Perryhawkin Rd, connecting dispersed hamlets like Whiteburg and Cokesbury. The presence of Perryhawkin Cemetery and Emanuel Cemetery near the creek's southern reaches provides a clear record of local family lineages. Waterways like Tonys Creek and Cottingham Mill Run further delineate the drainage patterns of this coastal plain region.
