About this map

Patuxent River and the meandering tributaries of the South River define the agricultural and maritime landscape of Anne Arundel County at the start of the twentieth century. This area is characterized by its reliance on water-based commerce, evidenced by the numerous landings and wharves such as Lees Wharf, Contees Wharf, and Hartges Wharf that dot the shorelines of the Rhodes River and West River. Inland, the settlement pattern centers on small post office villages like Owensville, Davidsonville, and Mt Zion, which served the surrounding farms.
