1956 Map of Marydel

About this map

The Maryland-Delaware border bisects this landscape of agrarian tracts and intricate drainage networks, where the Pennsylvania Railroad railroad corridor defines the northwest corner at Marydel. This mid-century revision reveals a rural economy centered on small crossroads settlements and water-powered history, evident at Choptank Mills and the nearby Mud Millpond. The terrain is characterized by an extensive system of agricultural improvements, including the Tappahanna Ditch and Culbreth Marsh Ditch, which channel water toward the upper reaches of the Choptank River.
