1954 Map of Nanjemoy

USGS Topo · Published 1967

About this map

Tayloe Neck dominates the eastern landscape of this mid-century survey, a peninsula defined by the winding course of Nanjemoy Creek as it reaches toward the Potomac River. The interior of Charles County is characterized by dense woodland and small rural centers, notably within the protected bounds of Doncaster State Forest. Settlement patterns are anchored by local institutions, with Durham Ch, St Ignatius Ch, and several schools like Mt Hope Sch serving the scattered community. Along the shoreline, Maryland Point and Riverside mark the southern interface with the river, while inland, the confluence of Beaverdam Run and Hancock Run feeds the tidal marshes and guts that define the region's complex hydrology. The map provides a clear record of the transition from wooded uplands to the marshy lowlands of Thorne Gut Marsh.
