2014 Map of Mechanicsville

About this map

Mechanicsville and the surrounding rural communities of Saint Mary's County are documented here as they appeared in the early 21st century. The landscape is defined by the numerous inlets of the Patuxent River, including Washington Creek and Trent Hall Creek, which carve into the shoreline at Billiard Point and Trent Hall Point. A concentration of genealogical data is found in the many burial grounds throughout the area, such as All Faith Cem near Huntersville and the Saint Josephs Cem to the south. The small aviation facility at Sandy Point Airport sits near the shore, while further inland, the settlements of Oraville, Laurel Grove, and Oakville line the primary corridors moving through the peninsula's interior. The map also records the jurisdictional boundaries meeting in the water, where Saint Mary's County joins Charles and Calvert counties.
