2014 Map of Hampstead

About this map

Hampstead serves as the primary hub of this northern Maryland landscape, surrounded by a dense network of residential developments including Hampstead Heights, Kempfield, and Melanie Acres. The area's industrial legacy is represented by the Black and Decker Manufacturing Company Reservoir situated near the town center. Moving south and east, the terrain shifts into more open acreage, where smaller crossroads such as Trenton and Upperco are located. This rural character is defined by the winding paths of watercourses like Blackrock Run and Little Piney Run, which historically supported local industry at sites like Trenton Mill. Genealogists will find significant value in the distribution of family and community burial grounds, specifically Saint Johns Cem in town and the more secluded Emory Cem and Mt Gilead Cem located near Woodensburg.
