About this map

The Tidewater landscape of Talbot County centers on the thriving hub of Easton, where the regional rail network and maritime trade converge. During the early 1940s, the Baltimore and Eastern and the Pennsylvania (Oxford Branch) railroads intersected in town, facilitating the transport of goods from local waters like the Tred Avon River and Miles River. The map documents a period of infrastructure expansion, notably labeling the Easton Maryland Airport as being under construction. Surrounding the urban center, the landscape is defined by established estates and historic rural identifiers such as The Anchorage, Magee Chapel, and All Saints Church. From the residential developments at St Aubins Heights to the scattered hamlets of Longwoods and Woodland, this survey provides a look at the county seat during a era of wartime growth and modernization.
