About this map

Saint Marks Cem and multiple locations of Rehobeth Cem reflect the deep family roots and community centers established across this Somerset County landscape. The area is defined by its intricate tidal waterways, where the Big Annemessex River and Pocomoke River frame a network of creeks including Annemessex Cr and Marumsco Creek. This coastal geography shaped a settlement pattern of small, distributed crossroads like Kingston, Hudson Corner, and Frogeye, which are linked by historic routes such as the Crisfield Hwy and Ocean Hwy.

Modern land use is evidenced by the Anderson Farm Airport near Hudson Corner, illustrating how older agricultural tracts have transitioned to include private aviation. The boundary between Somerset Co and Worcester Co follows the natural curve of the Pocomoke River in the east, while the west is dominated by the marshy reaches of East Creek and Gales Cr. Local landmarks like Cottage Grove and Greenhill serve as further anchors for genealogical and local history research in this Eastern Shore region.
