2011 Map of Fairmount

About this map

Goslee Mill and its associated Goslee Mill Pond Dam reflect the long history of milling in this coastal Delaware landscape. This 2011 survey shows a transition from traditional agricultural settlements like Robinsonville and Cool Spring toward modern residential developments along the inlets of Rehoboth Bay. The terrain is deeply articulated by tidal creeks and branches, including Love Creek, Guinea Creek, and Arnell Creek, which historically supported landings such as Fisher Landing and Robinson Landing. Genealogy researchers will find several notable burial grounds, including the Indian Mission Cemetery, Ebenezer Cemetery, and Saint Georges Cemetery. The presence of the Cool Spring Grange and Angola Grange underscores the area's social history rooted in its farming past, even as Long Neck and surrounding areas show increased urbanization through various named acres and villages.
