1913 Map of Nanjemoy
USGS Topo · Published 1913About this map
Potomac River shoreline and the deeply indented tidal creeks of Charles County define this pre-war survey of the Nanjemoy peninsula. The landscape is characterized by a network of rural settlements like Ironsides, Hilltop, and Cross Roads, connected by wagon roads that converge at local landmarks like Trappe Bridge. The influence of the river economy is evident in the numerous landings and wharves, such as Liverpool Wharf and Friendship Landing, which served as vital transit points for tobacco and goods before modern highway development.
