1953 Map of Lower Marlboro

About this map

The Patuxent River serves as the central artery for this mid-century survey, dividing the landscapes of Prince Georges and Calvert counties. The shoreline is defined by numerous historic river access points such as Lyons Creek Wharf, White Landing, and Magruder Landing, reflecting an era when the river remained vital for local transport and commerce. Small rural communities like Lower Marlboro and Nottingham anchor the winding road network, which includes family and place-named routes like Magruder Ferry Rd and Naylor Baden Road.
