About this map

The Patuxent River winds through this coastal plain landscape, defining the boundary between Prince George's and Calvert counties. This mid-2010s survey captures a network of rural settlements and landing points that reflect centuries of Tidewater history. Long-established communities such as Lower Marlboro and Aquasco are depicted alongside significant local landmarks like Saint Thomas Church and the Shiloh Methodist Episcopal Church South Cem.

Evidence of the area's maritime and agricultural heritage is found in road names like Magruders Ferry Rd and Milltown Landing Rd, pointing to former river crossings and transport hubs. The map also details varied terrain features such as Sneaking Point and Jones Point, which helped navigate the river's many bends. Modern developments like Lakewood Estates contrast with the older rural character found around Croom and Baden.
