About this map

The Mason and Dixon Line serves as a central axis for this mid-century survey, where the borders of Maryland, Pennsylvania, and Delaware converge. In the east, the growing campus of the University of Delaware anchors Newark, while the surrounding countryside remains a landscape of small agricultural settlements and rural institutions. The map documents the intricate network of watercourses that defined local industry and boundaries, including the Big Elk Creek and the headwaters of the Christina River.
