1942 Map of Ninepin
USGS Topo · Published 1962About this map
The Pocomoke River and a dense network of swampy tributaries define the rural landscape of Worcester and Wicomico Counties during the early 1940s. Large tracts of wetlands like Beech Swamp, Franklin Swamp, and Ninepin Swamp separate small agricultural clusters and crossroads settlements. The map illustrates a drainage-dependent economy, where features like Jobes Ditch, Adkins Race, and Whiton Ditch were essential for managing the low-lying terrain. Transport and commerce are concentrated around rail points such as Ironshire Sta and Queponco Sta near Newark, while the presence of a Lookout Tower near Mt Pleasant suggests the importance of fire observation over the expansive woodlands. Notable family-named landmarks and local centers include Timmonstown, Libertytown, and the Mt Pleasant Ch, providing specific points of interest for those tracing Maryland's Eastern Shore history.
