About this map

Tuckahoe Creek and the Choptank River define the intricate shoreline of this Eastern Shore landscape, where water-access points like Wings Landing, Providence Landing, and Ganey Wharf signify a long-standing maritime economy. The map reveals a transition from traditional riverside settlements like Kingston Landing and Lewistown to modern residential developments such as Country Life Acres and Meadow View Farms.

Genealogists will find significant value in the distribution of family-named sites and burial grounds, including Fairview Cemetery, Smithson Cemetery, and Bell Chapel Cemetery. Small community hubs like Matthews and Harmony are documented alongside specialized landmarks such as Ewing Airport and the Cordova Post Office, providing a clear picture of the region's infrastructure just after the turn of the twenty-first century.
