2023 Map of Laurel
USGS Topo · Published 2023About this map
Broad Creek and its complex network of managed drainage ways define the landscape around Laurel, where the Bulkhead-Shoal Channel and Records Pond meet the town center. This area in Sussex County shows a dense concentration of religious and genealogical sites, particularly the Old Christ Church Cem and the Sailors Bethel United Methodist Church Cem near the riverfront. The map documents the low-lying terrain characterized by numerous agricultural ditches like the Black Savannah Ditch and Bacon and Kenney Ditch, which support the region's long-standing land-use patterns. From the riverside community of Bethel to the crossroads at Bacons and Lowe, the geography is a mix of small residential clusters, active aviation at Laurel Airport, and established cemeteries that provide a clear record of local family history.
