2019 Map of Goldsboro

About this map

Goldsboro and the surrounding agricultural landscapes of the Delmarva Peninsula are captured in this study of the Maryland-Delaware border. This survey details the rural networks of Caroline and Queen Anne's Counties, where drainage systems like the Edenburg Ditch and Beetree Ditch define the low-lying terrain. The map is particularly useful for genealogists tracing family roots near Mount Zion and Marydel, as it identifies local burial sites such as Union Memorial Cem and Rochester Cem. The upper reaches of the Choptank River meander through the southern portion of the quadrangle, passing near Lake Bonnie and the settlement of Henderson. The landscape is marked by numerous historic intersections and family-named routes, including Kane Crossroads and Melville Crossroads, reflecting the long-established transit patterns of this border region.
