About this map

The Potomac River dominates this late nineteenth-century coastal survey, separating the shores of St. Mary County, Maryland, from the Northern Neck of Virginia. On the Virginia side, the map records the rural landscape of Westmoreland and Northumberland counties, where small landings and crossroads communities like Kinsale and Hague served the local tobacco and timber economy. A vital transit point is marked at Mount Holly (Nomini Ferry), where travelers crossed Nomini Creek.
