About this map

Reeder Wharf and Jones Wharf anchor the river-based economy of the Patuxent River in the late nineteenth century, reflecting a landscape defined by maritime transit. This survey, directed by Charles D. Walcott, illustrates the intricate tidewater geography where the Wicomico River and Potomac River meet. Inland, the settlement pattern follows historical corridors through Charlotte Hall and Mechanicsville, while the Southern Maryland landscape is dotted with family-named landmarks like Sotterly and Drumcliff.

The coastal transition is marked by numerous landings such as Currioman Landing and Mt. Airy Landing, serving as vital links before modern bridge networks. Distinctive features like the Nomini Ferry and Blakistone Id. highlight the reliance on waterborne travel between Maryland and Virginia. For researchers, the map provides precise locations for nineteenth-century post offices and hamlets like Lothair and Allen Fresh, capturing the rural infrastructure of the Tidewater region prior to early twentieth-century development.
