Ellendale and Lincoln anchor this 2014 survey of central Delaware, where the landscape is defined by a dense network of small residential enclaves and quiet water bodies. The geography is characterized by clusters such as Lincoln Village, Hilltop Acres, and Walkers Acres that sit between the many small streams and ponds that drain the region. Of particular interest to genealogists are the scattered burial sites, including Ellendale Cem, New Market Cem, and Banning Cem, which mark the presence of established communities like New Market and Oakley. The map reflects a modern rural-suburban hybrid, where traditional named settlements persist alongside newer developments like Sussex Woods and Hudson Pond Acres. Water features like Clendaniel Pond, Cabbage Pond, and Swiggetts Pond are central to the terrain, feeding into winding branches like Sowbridge Br and Gravelly Br.
