About this map

Emmitsburg and its surrounding countryside are detailed in this 2014 survey, highlighting the deep religious and educational heritage of this Frederick County community. The area around Mt St Marys Univ is particularly dense with historical markers, including the Old Mt Saint Marys Cem and several other burial grounds like Saint Josephs Cem and Saint Elias Cem. The landscape is defined by the winding paths of Toms Creek and the Monocacy River, which carve through a mix of established residential clusters and rural land.

Transportation corridors like Us-15 and Waynesboro Pike connect various smaller settlements such as Motters, Fourpoints, and Zora. Significant local landmarks include industrial and aviation sites like Shanks Mill, Bell Airport, and the Catoctin Crosswind Airport, illustrating the evolution of local infrastructure over time. The map also records the boundary line between Frederick and Carroll counties, as well as the interstate line where Maryland meets Adams County, Pennsylvania.
