About this map

Millington and Galena anchor this survey of the upper Delmarva Peninsula, where the landscape transitions between the tributaries of the Sassafras River and the Chester River. The area is characterized by a dense network of water bodies, including Swantown Cr, Jacobs Cr, and Cypress Br, reflecting the region's historical reliance on coastal waterways. Local aviation is represented by Schlosser Airport near Sassafras and the Massey Aerodrome further south, while the community of Massey remains a central point for local travel at the intersection of several regional roads.

Genealogists and local historians can trace family-named landmarks and historical sites such as Saint Clements Cem and Peacock Corners. The geography is further defined by various points along the riverbanks, such as Deep Point, Judge Point, and Morton Point, which have long shaped the maritime and agricultural identity of Kent County. The map also clearly delineates the Maryland Delaware state line, illustrating the cross-border connectivity of settlements like Golts.
