About this map

The Mason And Dixon Line serves as a defining boundary in this mid-century survey, cutting across a landscape where Maryland, Delaware, and Pennsylvania converge. The college town of Newark dominates the eastern portion of the sheet, centered around the University Of Delaware and the New London Ave Sch. Outside the growing town center, the terrain is defined by the winding paths of Big Elk Creek and White Clay Creek, which once powered local industry at sites like Elk Mills.
